Tips for birding Salt River
Located just northeast of Mesa lies the Lower Salt River Recreation Area of the Tonto National Forest, which provides birders with overall one of the better areas to bird in the county. This recreation area is accessed by taking the Bush Highway as the central point to access many different recreation sites along the river. Every site here is productive in it's own way. The Salt River is in the middle of the lower sonoran desert habitats that make up this part of Arizona, and all along the river lies stands and forests of cottonwoods, willows, and mesquites. With this excellent source of riparian habitat, the Lower Salt River is valuable to many different species, which includes resident and breeding birds, as well as migratory and wintering species.
