Backyard Birding at the B & B

Tucson is for the birds……and birders, too! Guests at Jeremiah Inn have enjoyed a family of Gambel quail that hatched within the walled backyard this summer. The proud parents began with 13 chicks in the relative safety of the B & B gardens. It was amusing to see them dart about, learning bird life skills. For weeks they hopped and scurried, busying themselves with eating bugs and seeds from the flowers and shrubs until they mastered flight and over the wall they went.
