River Island State Park

Here we are relaxing in the shade of a Mesquite tree in a host site at River Island State Park. We are here temporarily until our official site at Buckskin Mountain State Park becomes available on Wednesday. Both of these are Arizona State Parks and are located only a mile apart right on the Colorado River.  River Island is a smaller park, but has some charm all of its own, and already we are enjoying identifying some new birds like the Blue-gray Gnatcatcher.
