  Audubon Society is designed for “Southeast Arizona Birding Festival” parti
 cipants looking for insight into the ecological factors shaping the distrib
 ution and population dynamics of avian communities in Southeastern Arizona.
   Most of our time will be spent in the Chiricahua Mountains, the largest a
 nd most biologically diverse of the isolated sierras locally known as “Sky 
 Islands.”  Drawing species from six North American bio-geographical regions
 —three with their locus in Mexico—and spanning five of C. Hart Merriam’s li
 fe zones, the Chiricahuas are a living laboratory that supports most of the
  birds found in the American Southwest.</p><p style="text-align: right; lin
