I recommend Papago Park in Scottsdale, although I have not been there for a few years. I was at a professional meeting in Phoenix and drove over there to bird whenever I had a couple hours to spare. Saw my one and only Bronzed Cowbird, although I think they are somewhat irregular there. Good luck! Ann Hobbs Silver Spring, MD
