within minutes from Battiste's Bed, Breakfast and Birds. Ash Canyon Bed and Breakfast This is an amazing place to visit with all of the activity that moves through the yard. 15 species of hummingbirds have been seen on the property such as Lucifer's, Plain-capped Starthroat, Violet-crowned and Berylline, just to name a few, and other sought after Arizona bird species such as the Arizona Woodpecker.
