Join us for a spring morning of birding near Elden Spring as migration begins to bring colorful warblers and hummingbirds back to northern Arizona. This scenic area at the base of Mount Elden can host a variety of species, and we’ll also scan the cliffs and slopes for raptors such as Peregrine Falcon. With a bit of luck we may encounter specialty birds like Painted Redstart, Red-faced Warbler, or even Northern Pygmy-Owl.
Date: Saturday April 4, 2026
Time: 8:00–12PM (noon)
Meeting Point: Cul-de-sac at the end of Lugano Way (via Matterhorn Drive).
Directions: From Flagstaff, take Matterhorn Drive and turn onto Lugano Way. Follow the road to the cul-de-sac where we will meet at 8:00 AM.
What to Bring: Binoculars, water, snacks, sturdy boots, and clothing appropriate for the weather. Parts of the trail can be rocky.
About the Location: Elden Spring sits along the slopes of Mount Elden and offers a mix of woodland and canyon habitat. In spring it can attract migrating warblers, hummingbirds, and raptors moving through the area.
