Your youthful enthusiasm is such a welcome reprieve from the run of the mill birding videos,well done young fella,makes me want to hit the road.

Awesome

I love that you gave us a tour of many different spots within a 100 mile radius - I wish more birding videos would do this, and give the specific locations the way you do. Your video is valuable information that I can use to plan my next road trip to southern Arizona. Thank you!

Cool video!

Great video man! Glad you enjoyed Arizona!

This video was great!! Can’t wait to go to AZ some day

Hi Chris! Fantastic video!!! Just a couple of small corrections for you. I don't know if it was said as a jab, but there are Northern Cardinals found in Arizona! They are actually quite common! Also, the bird you identified as a Yellow-bellied Sapsucker was actually a Red-naped Sapsucker. You can see the small red spot on the back of his head and it's a much more commonly bird seen here in AZ, with the Yellow-belled being a fairly rare bird. Keep the videos coming. You do a much better job at this than a whole lot of other videos I've seen!!!! You're really good at this!!!!

Great vid. I would have gave you a like just for the defense that didn’t show up.

Well done! I've been in AZ 9 years. A year ago, I bought a nice used Canon EOS 7D, my first DSLR (love it!). Late March I checked out Riparian Preserve at Water Ranch in Gilbert. It popped up a few times in my KZfaq feed from watching a lot of photog/birding vids. It looks tiny on a map, but it was amazing in the Spring! Far exceeded my expectations. I was actually looking again through the hundreds of photos I took. Also on a birding note, I saw an Osprey this Spring not really close to a good body of water, on a pole along a road. Great to see, but kinda odd? Late January was fortunate to be introduced to Loggerhead Shrike seeing one at Apache Wash Trailhead. Best to you

Those were awesome birds. I've seen about 211 species of birds. Seeing 440 species of birds is amazing!

Funny jab at those poor (Arizona) cardinals! Have a great Xmas Chris!

You saw so many cool birds! I think my favorite was the cactus wren 🌵🏜️

Beauties! I love desert birding, and you saw a lot of the highlights. Rufous-winged Sparrow is a tricky species in the US - very limited range! Southeast AZ is one of my favorite spots, so much to see.

Nice trip! Nice to see you saw some of my neighborhood birds, Brewer’s Sparrow and Canyon Towhee.

great shots! Thanks for bringing us along on the adventure, go Niners!

Chris, your videos keep getting better and better! Amazing work! So many cool birds! Also, that's a really cool monopod that you have! Probably helps tremendously with stabilization! Keep up the awesome videos!

What kind of monopod are you using? Great video!
