Gilbert Arizona is located southeast of Phoenix and is home to the Riparian Preserve & Water Park, a wonderful place to hike and bird watch. The park is full of trails, lakes and streams.
On a visit there you will see all kinds of birds that are attracted to the water like this beautiful snowy egret.
Or this black necked stilt.
And you will most likely run into a few ground animals too. Like this cute rabbit who was kind enough to pose for me. It's a great place to experience nature without leaving the valley.
You made some wonderful photos of the animals!
