Birds are a powerful gateway into our healing natural world. If you love birds, you can call yourself a birder 😊

Accessible birding recommendations in Sedona, AZ? I'm a power wheelchair user, and will be visiting #Sedona in February. I'm hoping to see desert #birds, so bonus points if it's not a wetland. I have checked the @birdability.bsky.social map. Thanks in advance for your recs, and please repost! 🪶 ♿️🌵
