Heat

                Before the trip we often joked about the heat. We convinced ourselves that it would be "dry heat" and not uncomfortable. But realistically heat is heat. We knew it would be hot but that would be the tradeoff for seeing good birds. The image above is from the forecast page of a smart phone app. You will see that here in Phoenix it is a little after 8 pm and the temperature just dipped below 100 degrees. And looking ahead you can see what Phoenix is in store for.

                With the exception of a couple of hours the first day and now the last night we spent our time south of here. And the area south of here is slightly higher in elevation and is cooler than the Phoenix area. Most of our days topped out in the low 90s and were relatively comfortable.
