I lived in Tucson for almost 15 years, Mt. Lemmon in a unique high elevation oasis. One of the coolest things I saw were a family of coatimundi on Mt. Graham.
Wow ! I litterally just got back from SE Arizona 2 days ago 🙂 What an awesome place ! I came home with shots of 24 lifer birds !!! ....which just means I'm not near as experienced as you guys 😀 lol Yea, the Yellow Eyed Juncos we're super cool. I am totally anxious to go back. Still need a Red Faced Warbler, a Varied Bunting, and a Trogon 🙂 Great video! TY 🙂
Very nice. I wonder how Mt. Graham in SE AZ is for birding? The pavement goes to 9,000ft and there's gravel to the 10,700ft summit where observatories are. It's more remote and less touristy than Mt. Lemmon. There are no shops on the mountain I think. It has the highest population density of Black Bear in the southwest, so there's that too :)
It isn't just finding awesome birds but the beauty of your surroundings I mean the lake is amazing ! Got to say the Red Faced Warbler was my favorite but the hummingbird how cool was that !
Really enjoyed guys, thank you for sharing! Great birds, great location, great video, and it looks like you had a great time. Keep up the good work and happy birding!
I'm moving back down from Illinois to Tucson next month. Can't wait to get back out to sweetwater, patagonia, madera canyon, and mount lemmon again. Looks like you guys had an awesome time. I haven't birded mount lemmon much yet, so I'm excited to check it out for once.
Olive Warbler was my most wanted when I visited Mount Lemmon unfortunately no luck. The Olive’s eluded me on my last trip to SE AZ. Red-faced was high on my list too but I got that at Miller Canyon-great bird!
Awesome place! I want to go there now, too. I just got my lifer Pygmy nuthatch a few months in Colorado. You can find a lot of cool and unique birds in higher elevations out West.
In this video we used this camera for the bird videos and I also use a Nikon D5300 for vlogging with a Rode VideoMic Pro. ruclips.net/video/H5ShXgmCs7g/видео.htmlsi=Cs3vgMKbWzYfMaSP
I still need Red-faced Warbler. Ill be surprised if I get one next week, as we are on the tail end of them. But hey, i think i saw something in your video that i didn't know.... correct me if I'm wrong, but the bright red in their face and head appeared to be irredescent ? Somewhat like the gorgette of many hummers ?

Love your videos, can't wait till you're both retired and road tripping/birding all the time!
Instead of retiring we’d rather just do this as a full time job!
I have nothing but fond memories of birding Mount Lemmon!

I love your posts. Educational and entertaining
You both do an amazing job!

Couldn't agree more!

Great birds, great location, great video, and it looks like you had a great time.
Keep up the good work and happy birding!
"I was excited to see a pygmy nuthatch" was hilarious to me because I live in the middle of a city and still regularly get them in my tinie tiny yard!
Don’t make me mention the warblers we get here again
@@BadgerlandBirding Magnolia Warblers hate me I don't even get it 😭
Mag shows up, I go, it gone. More than 4 times now. Like huh???
I love the drive up Mt Lemmon. One of my favorite birding spots during our SE AZ trip. Thanks for bringing it back to mind.
Our pleasure!

I am SO envious ! I keep talking about moving there... Maybe 1 day I can make that happen 🙂
Lots of great stuff in this one! AZ looks incredible.
It really is!

That was one of our targets we missed on for this trip :(
Thanks for showing us this area; very informative
Good stuff guyz🕊📸
I would be glad to visit southeast Arizona one day and see what birds I could find. That was a great video.
Great place! Someday I'll go birding in Arizona. The Red-faced Warbler was always one of my favorites.
Loved this video. Can’t wait to go there.
A great video, as usual, but especially good for a cold rainy day here in western WA. Thanks!
Awesome place! I want to go there now, too. I just got my lifer Pygmy nuthatch a few months in Colorado. You can find a lot of cool and unique birds in higher elevations out West.
The elevation differences were something new to us as we don’t really have drastic changes like that in WI
I love your videos!
Thanks for watching!
Guys that was so cool, great video as always 👍
Thank you so much 😁
very nice. thanks.
Definitely have to get out to AZ at some point, what was your favorite species of the trip?
Great video, as always. Have you guys considered including info about when each video was filmed? Was this one filmed in the spring/summer?
This was the end of May
Great video guys. What type cameras/lens do you use?

Yep I'm here for this one 😎 first
Happy to have you!
Nice birds! What time of year were you there? Thanks for sharing.
I believe this was end of May/beginning of June
Maybe you could put the date of your trip on the video. Thanks 😊
Awesome video as always! What month did you go? Planning a trip this year and thinking early May
We went at the end of May
I still need Red-faced Warbler. Ill be surprised if I get one next week, as we are on the tail end of them.

Hi, I have a question. How do you connect with other birders and get quick updates on rare birds in your state/area?
It depends on the state. In WI we have Facebook groups and an email list along with eBird alerts. There are also ABA rarity Facebook groups too
