September!! Turkey Vulture Challenge

Hello Fall!... well maybe not yet... here in Phoenix! But soon.

August Monthly Challenge Results- We had six docemented Striped-tailed Scorpions in three locations in August, but total of 12 documented for the year! Since they are elusive and come out at night, it is hard to get a pic in the parks! Great work team!

September Challenge is the Turkey Vulture! The flyer is located here

They have a black body and distinctive red head, but when in flight you would need your binoculars to view the red head.

Come join us for the Bats and Buzzards fest in Wickenburg sign up here: https://www.maricopacountyparks.net/events/bats-and-buzzards-on-the-bridge-wickenburg/0916221/
You wil learn all about these Turkey Buzzards and some great info about bats too!

The weather is cooling down, at least in the mornings and evenings..so it is a great time to get out to the parks and do some Ecoblitzing!

Get out there and have some fun while exploring.
Sincerely
Juanita
