YOUNG BIRDERS—A Birder’s Paradise … Oaxaca, Mexico

YOUNG BIRDERS—A Birder’s Paradise … Oaxaca, Mexico

I visited the Mexican state of Oaxaca for a birding trip from January 11th to January 17th, 2019. Oaxaca is located southeast of Mexico City, and is the 5th largest Mexican state. It is bisected by the Sierra Madre Mountain range, which creates a continental divide between the Atlantic Slope to the north and the Pacific Slope to the south.

What Birds Help Us See

To love birds is to know that beauty is all around us, if we just take the time to notice. There is a tree in Kenneth Hahn State Recreation Area, where I like to walk as often as I can.

Los Angeles: The Place to Pursue Your Dream (of Birding)

I am a part-time Californian. I have a loving husband and home in Michigan. In 2015, I drove out to LA to pursue a part-time creative life. I’ve dabbled in birding since I was 18, but my time in California, with access to so many birds has put that passion into overdrive.
