Elaine's, A Bed and Breakfast
Bird Watching Information

Elaine's has designed special welcome packages for guests
with birding interests. These include a bird list of over 100
birds that can be seen here at this bed and breakfast, as reported
by Ken Schneider, one of the area's expert birders.
- In warm weather breakfast can be served outside within plain
view of the bird feeders and the birds.
- Breakfast options range from continental to-go breakfasts
(available to birders that like to get an early start on the
day), to late full breakfasts, so you can see and hear the birds
on their schedule.
- Guests are welcome to borrow maps of the local birding areas
with directions to many of the local bird watching points just
minutes away.
- A list of over 250 birds that have been spotted in the Sandia
and Manzano Mountains, including the Manzanitas and Gallinas
Mountains, by Hart R. Schwartz, neotropical bird specialist for
the Cibola National Forest will be given out, as long as, supplies
last.
- Directions to, and information on, tours at Talking Talons
Living Museum (a recognized leadership center).

The Rosy Finches are here!!!

See them, hear them, identify them, and count them! From now
until early spring you are likely to see black, brown-capped,
gray-crowned rosy finches and if your are lucky, you may see
a subspecies of the gray-crowned--the hepburn's form. All these
are in the National Forest just minutes from Elaine's. You might
see Evening Grosbeaks or Pine Siskins from the yard of the bed
and breakfast. Call Elaine to make a reservation and get the
latest information on where they are.
