Sharp-shinned Hawk, McDowell Mountain Regional Park, near Phoenix, Arizona.

Nothing would clear the birds out of our campsite faster than the arrival of this beautiful bird!

Northern Cardinal, McDowell Mountain Regional Park, Arizona.

I was finally able to capture a decent image of a male Northern Cardinal Sunday morning. These bright red guys sure look out of place in the monochromatic desert.
