Tips for birding Buffalo Park
When the breezes blow, you are likely to see Ravens performing acrobatic flights. The meadow and mixed forest vegetation means that a broad suite of grassland and forest species visit Buffalo Park. Keep your eyes peeled for lark sparrows, among the most striking of sparrows in this area. From Arizona Watchable Wildlife

An easy loop trail provides access to a grassland with its associated birds. Another trail leads to adjacent forest, which is rich in oaks and good for a number of woodpeckers. From Northern Arizona Audubon Society

About Buffalo Park
Part of Flagstaff's urban trail system, Buffalo Park hosts a 2-mile loop trail through an expansive open space on the flat top of McMillan Mesa, an ancient lava flow. Most of the trail is on open, native grassland, but just to the west of the park entrance the trail dips into a wooded ravine. The trail provides a magnificent panorama to the mountains north of town, including the San Francisco Peaks, the Dry Lake Hills, and Mount Elden. Buffalo Park also offers access to Flagstaff Urban Trail System (FUTS) and Forest Service trails including the Arizona Trail and McMillan Mesa Trail. From Arizona Watchable Wildlife
