Liberty Wildlife

Meet Apache the Golden Eagle
This is Vivian, she is a Merlin
Here is Bailey the Turkey Vulture
Rio is a Zone Tailed Hawk
This big beauty is Armadillo the Black Vulture
Here is an American Kestrel. Unfortunately I forgot her name.


Liberty Wildlife is a wonderful rehabilitation conservation group for animals. We have taken a sick Mourning Dove to the facility earlier this summer. My daughter and I were treated to an awesome presentation at Desert Rivers Audubon's meeting. These birds will never return to the wild, but they are absolutely beautiful none the less!

Brown Thrasher


We are currently waiting on confirmation of this bird. It is so exciting that it just might be a Brown Thrasher. Why so exciting? It is not native to Arizona and to be in our area is truly rare.

So with out further ado, here is the bird in question that has been in our backyard off and on this week.
