The Restaurant La Palmita is just below El Aguajito on MEX 16 west of Yécora. It was an excellent area to observe hummingbirds in oak woodland during the Migratory Pollinator Project. The Coronado family maintained feeders provided many important observations. Ten species of hummingbirds were observed here. |
