McDowell Mountain Regional Park operated by Maricopa County. Campground is magnificent. Lots of people feed the birds in the campground. Great spot to just set and watch from your window. Fabulous hiking and mountain biking trails right from campground. Fountain Hills and the best Safeway in the world is about 20 minutes. Maricopa County also operates Cave Creek and Usery Mountain campgrounds. Great place to go birding is the Boyce Thompson Arboretum east of Gold Canyon. Gilbert, AZ has a waste water/recycled water park with miles of hiking trails. No smell. Couldn't believe the variety of birds.
