Tips for birding Phoenix Zoo
The Phoenix Zoo creates an excellent habitat for both migrating and wintering birds in the greater Phoenix area. The zoo probably doesn't strike one's mind as an excellent "birding" spot at first, but the many ponds and exhibits with excellent habitats attract large numbers of wintering waterfowl and migrants in the spring and fall. The trails, paths and exhibits in the zoo have native habitat throughout the entire place (some excellent riparian habitat). While looking in an animal's exhibit, you never know what wild bird might show up in the trees and plantings. The ponds at the zoo are always worth birding for wintering waterfowl, where a nice variety of ducks and other waterbirds are commonly observed. Besides birding in the Phoenix Zoo, the zoo is also a great place to see many exotic birds throughout the world in the exhibits, an excellent way to learn about different birds outside of North America. Buying a membership and birding this zoo on a regular basis will result in good birding opportunities. From Birding in Maricopa County
