Spring birds in Arizona

Arizona's sky islands and Sonoran Desert make it a premier destination for specialty birds found nowhere else in the U.S. During spring, bird activity is shaped by migration and nesting along the Pacific Flyway.

Where to look

Explore desert, forest, wetland, urban habitat, including Madera Canyon and Ramsey Canyon Preserve.

Observation timing

Early morning is usually most productive. Watch woodland edges, flowering gardens, wetlands, and migration stopovers.
