Bear in mind, I live about a block from a city park and golf course. The park has a 7.5 acre lagoon, and the adjacent golf course has about half again that in water features.

I mention this because in the desert southwest, anything bigger than a mud puddle has a population of water fowl. Near sunset there are always ducks, geese, and egrets, sortie-ing from ponds, canals, lagoons, water treatment facilities, and municipal lakes in the metro area.

Phoenix is more of an artificial environment than most, I suspect. So my experience may run counter to others.

Use to see an occasional Woodpecker and Cardinal. Have not seen either in quite a while.

In the last five years, the population of Grackles and Pigeons seems to have dropped a great deal. Prior to that, both were present in huge numbers. The Grackle population seemed to bloom about ten or twelve years ago, and as it did, the Mockingbirds seemed to diminish. I think the Mockingbirds are on the rebound, (hope so) but Finches, Mourning Doves, Hummingbirds, and the rest are more or less at a steady state. Just my observations, don't take it to the bank.
