Hannah and Erik escape the cold of Oregon for the warmer temperatures of Tucson, Arizona.  First stop is the Ash Canyon Bird Sanctuary in Cochise County, Az and the famous feeders in Mary Jo Ballator's garden.  After learning more about Mary Jo and the SABO, they head off in search of more southeast Arizona target species: Scaled Quail, Rufous-backed Robin, and Gilded Flicker at some incredible rural and urban birding sites.
