Always best when birds are both noisy and brightly coloured... This Woodhouse Scrub Jay at the Grand Canyon ticked both boxes. Western Scrub Jay was split in 2016

Las Vegas is intense and £££ so we hired a car and headed to the Grand Canyon via the Hoover Dam. Only 4 hours to Grand Canyon Village, so a short hop in Twitcher terms. Did some birding at Sunrise.

Bird of the trip had to go to Greater Roadrunner. This was the most wanted on this trip and was actually easy at Henderson Preserve. #meepmeep

Slowly going through the US pictures , starting with Henderson Bird Preserve about 30 mins outside of Las Vegas. Due to the time it took to get our hire car we only had about an hour and a half. Missed so much but pleased with what we did see. Nice to finally see Kildeers..much bigger than I thought
