Following the winery tour we drove over to the Whitewater Draw Wildlife Area which is a winter refuge for many waterfowl but especially Sand Hill Cranes. These are big beautiful birds which we have seen in Michigan and in Florida.
The next stop is Bisbee, a quaint little town built around the Queen Copper Mine. It’s all hills and reminds us somewhat of Eureka Springs, AR. The RV park overlooks the copper mine and is within walking distance of the town. As we were window shopping and strolling along the business district we realized the people in town were lining the street as if waiting for a parade. When we asked a local she said that there would be a short parade to welcome back the Turkey Vultures! It’s the weirdest parade we have ever watched! They even had a drum line concert on the corner which reminded us of the drummers in Uruguay.
