DIRECT PRESCOTT BIRDING-Get rid of ordinary days

When you don't get out of town and into the mountains enough for serenity, you get crazy and bored.

When you get crazy and bored, you wan't to go back to your home away from home.

When you go back to your home away from home such as Prescott, life suddenly gets good.

When life suddenly gets good at Prescott, you see a Pink-sided Dark-eyed Junco.

When you see a Pink-sided Dark-eyed Junco, you know the surroundings are going to be awesome, such as a picture perfect scene with rolling hills and pine trees.

When the surroundings are awesome, such as a picture perfect scene with rolling hills and pine trees, you start to look for Williamson's Sapsuckers.

When you start to look for Williamson's Sapsuckers, they don't show up.  When they don't show up, your own nape starts to get red in anger.

When your own nape starts to get red in anger, you stare at a few ducks at the small Granite Basin Lake.

When you stare at a few ducks at the small Granite Basin Lake, you would rather stare at a load of ducks at the popular Willow Lake.

When you would rather stare at a load of ducks at the popular Willow Lake, you'll meet a famous local birder named Carl Tomoff.

When you meet a famous local birder named Carl Tomoff, he tells you about a local rarity.

When he tells you about a local rarity, you chase that bird, no matter how small it may be in size.

When you chase that bird, no matter how small it may be in size, you start to stare at a stick pile for awhile.

When you stare at a stick pile for awhile, something is bound to change.

When something is bound to change, you notice that the shy Pacific Wren has surfaced from his shelter and has become welcoming.

When you notice that the shy Pacific Wren has surfaced from his shelter and has become welcoming, the Pacific Wren wants his picture to be taken even more!

When the Pacific Wren wants his picture to be taken even more, you get good at photographing a micro bird.  

When you get good at photographing a micro bird, you then can't re-adjust to photographing a larger bird well that is twenty feet over your head..like a Common Raven.

When you then can't re-adjust to photographing a larger bird well that is twenty feet over your head...like a Common Raven, you try photographing White-throated Swifts instead at the cliffs of Prescott's Granite Dells.

When you try photographing White-throated Swifts instead at the cliff's of Prescott's Granite Dells, you get dizzy and need to get back into the ponderosa pine forest that surrounds another high mountain lake.

When you get dizzy and need to get back into the ponderosa pine forest that surrounds another high mountain lake, you start to stare at low foraging White-breasted Nuthatches.

When you start to stare at low foraging White-breasted Nuthatches, you then have to look up to admire the Western Bluebirds for awhile.

When you then have to look up to admire the Western Bluebirds for awhile, the blue reminds you to look out onto Lynx Lake.  

When the blue reminds you to look out onto Lynx Lake, you see a pair of boring waterfowl.

When you see a pair of boring waterfowl, you then know it's time to head up further up higher into the mountains up on Walker Road to look for more montane forest birds.

When you then know it's time to head up further up higher into the mountains up on Walker Road to look for more montane forest birds, you then have a close encounter with a young male Olive Warbler.

When you then have a close encounter with a young male Olive Warbler, you feel the need to search through a lush stand of Douglas fir.

When you feel the need to search through a lush stand of Douglas fir, you find yourself getting a strange visit from a very un-average creeper who looks for insects instead of a look up yours.  

When you find yourself getting a strange visit from a very un-average creeper who looks for insects instead of a look up yours, you feel like you have a chance to get a killer photograph of this un-average creeper before it flies up into his normal height.

When you feel like you have a chance to get a killer photograph of this un-average creeper before it flies up into his normal height, you end up getting blurry mediocre photographs before he makes his way up his to his normal height and he say's, "up yours".  

When you end up getting blurry mediocre photographs before he makes his way up his to his normal height and he say's, "up yours", you get mad and start to frantically run through the forest and try to get a better photograph, looking up and down each tree.

When you get mad and start to frantically run through the forest and try to get a better photograph, looking up and down each tree, to the average person walking by, you end up looking like an average creeper.
