13th Annual Arizona Field Ornithologists Meeting

Join us for our scientific paper presentations among other regular AZFO reports, business, and activities. This is an opportunity to learn about ongoing research on the status, behavior, and distribution of Arizona birds and interact with presenters. As well as, learn how to become more involved with AZFO. In addition, let’s not forget about your chance to put your skills to the test with our audio and visual identification quizzes. We’ll also announce this year’s AZFO Gale Monson and Youth Scholarship recipients. And it is a great time to network with the many Arizona birders attending. There will also be AZFO logo gear and books for sale. The raffle and silent auction add to the fun.
