If you want to see raptors in flight, up close, the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum is a great place to do it! Watch this video for a taste of what you will see.
Here you will be able to witness, first hand, Harris’ Hawks, Chihuahuan Ravens, Barn Owls, Great Horned Owls, Ferruginous Hawks, Gray Hawks, Prairie Falcons, or Greater Roadrunners. Check their website for information at Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum.
I found a good article on some do’s and don’ts for bird watching binoculars at the About Bird Feeders website. They have some good advise in their article about what you should be looking for in a good birding binocular. This Stokes DLS 10X42 Binocular in the photo above is a higher end binocular that you can see the specs for here: Stokes DLS 10X42 .
As I stated in an earlier article, make sure you try out different binoculars in your price range before buying. That is truly the only way you will know if you have the right fit for you. Go check out the article at About Bird Feeders and then do some research before you buy.

My first contribution to Camera Critters had to be a bird (of course). And what better subject than the Acorn Woodpecker! See my story about this clinging bird here Bring In The Clowns .
We get to see some great cloud formations from our back porch. I like the way the clouds are backlit in this sunset. This is my first contribution to Skywatch Friday. What do you think?
