Kelso Dunes
24 May Laura Cunningham said she noted some
Horned Larks here. Also, Black-throated
Sparrow,
Later, at about 9:30 am, I drove
to Flagstaff, AZ via I-40. After I
[illegible]
explored for possible red crossbill areas,
but the cone crop was very poor here.
The road to the top of the mountain
(5,166 Peaks) was closed about 6 mi.
off of Hwy 180. I decided to head south
to the Mogollon Rim where I found
a campsite 3 mi. N of Strawberry, AZ.
25 May Mogollon Rim, Arizona
I set out the net at the campsite,
but did not notice any crossbills.
Just Rafous-sided Towhees, Western
Bluebirds, Olive-sided Flycatchers.
Then headed E on the Rim
Road, and followed this until
18 mi. W of Show Low, where I cut
N to Hwy 260. I did encounter
a pair of crossbills (see entry)
along the route. The habitat
throughout was of ponderosa pine,
with very poor cone crop. This "worst"
area was along between 260 and 260.
