ARIZONA

Last night, there appeared to be a decent movement of birds near Yuma, but they seemed to be heading in a westerly direction. David Vander Pluym and I are heading out to do some lake watching and to check for migrants at some local hot spots. Central and Southeast Arizona showed little movement last night. I will report back later with any migrants that we find!
