Arizona Bird Call

A report on a recently awarded multimillion dollar grant from the U.S. Highway Administration to Arizona Game and Fish Department and Arizona Department of Transportation for construction of wildlife overpasses/underpasses along Arizona portions of Interstates 17 and 40. These structures are designed to allow large mammals and other wildlife to safely cross thoroughfares during seasonal migrations and to cut down on vehicle collisions with wildlife. Bird of the week: Lawrence's Goldfinch. Birding hotspot: Mingus Mountain in Yavapai County. Friend of wildlife organization: the Salton Sea Coalition. Calendar of bird friendly events coming up in Arizona.
