My Best Day of Birding in Arizona! (With a Record-breaking birder)

My friend Nathaniel and I go birding with Global Big Year record holder Arjan Dwarshuis as well as talented guides Billi Krochuk and Ethan Kistler. Our search takes us to Box Canyon where we search for Five-striped Sparrow, Montezuma Quail, and more.
