Great way to start 2025

My good buddy and I went on our annual New Years Day bird hunt today. We started with a nice breakfast at First Watch and then headed out. Got to our first spot around 8:15, dropped a few and moved on to our honey hole. I was able to limit out by 1:00 and he was able to limit out by 3:30. Once again the coveys were huge, at least 20-30 some even more and once you busted them up, you could easily pick em apart. And they were calling/clucking all day again. Also came across this massive Crested Saguaro, these are definitely unique saguaros. And this large owl.

Those owls will be mating soon. I have seen the most created saguaros in the Tucson area. I know of a canyon that has more than one.
