These hang on the wall near the greater roadrunner aviary viewing window. See below for a full species list with English and scientific names.
According to these signs the following species are kept free-ranging in the Desert:
- Turkey vulture (Cathartes aura)
- White-winged dove (Zenaida asiatica)
- Socorro dove (Zenaida graysoni)
- Scaled quail (Callipepla squamata)
- Gambel's quail (Callipepla gambelii)
- Blue-winged teal (Spatula discors)
- Yellow grosbeak (Pheucticus chrysopeplus)
- Lawrence's goldfinch (Carduelis lawrencei)
- Mexican house finch (Carpodacus mexicanus)
- Northern cardinal (Cardinalis cardinalis)
- Ultramarine grosbeak (Cyanoloxia brissonii)
- Painted bunting (Passerina ciris)

During my visit I saw half of these twelve species: turkey vulture, white-winged and Socorro dove, scaled quail, yellow and ultramarine grosbeak.
