From what I've read, fungus is a problem in rainy areas like south Florida. I don't have that issue. |

I can see how that would be true.
Question, how dry is it normally in January in Arizona? Last January I went birding in Tucson and Southwards for 1 week. Boy did it rain. Just my luck, I go to the desert and it rains on me. There was snow on the mountain tops so I couldn't bird there due to the closed roads. I got rained out of the places I was able to get to cutting my birding in half. 2 hours of driving and I had to turn back due to rain  . Oh well. I should be hired as a drought breaker.

It's dry unless a winter storm comes from the Pacific. That happens irregularly, any time from late November to maybe April. If you watch the weather news and see a big storm hitting southern California, it will hit Arizona the next day. But even if California gets a lot of rain, we might only have cloudy weather, so it's unpredictable.
I hope you saw the hummingbird aviary at the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum in Tucson. |

No!!!
I did not know about that one. I went to the Tucson Audubon Society’s Paton Center for Hummingbirds
Patagonia, Santa Cruz County Arizona. Not much going on that day though.
