Varied Bunting

The varied bunting is found along portions of the southern borders of Arizona, New Mexico and Texas and goes south as far as little piece of Guatemala. They inhabit deserts and prefer thorny brush thickets, thorn forests, scrubby woodlands and overgrown clearings. They are not found in residential areas. I saw this one in Rock Corral Canyon in the Tumacacori Mountains in southeastern Arizona which was very far removed from a residential setting. It was quite a distance away and my photo is very poor.
