The real estate developers in AZ must have missed their payoff to the democratic party. Owls force development down the hills into the hotter lands. That owl can be spotted anywhere below 5000 - 8000 feet over 3/4 of airzona depending on who you buy for consulting. It follows its pray population and really is abundant just in the palces in AZ to place a house, the high lands with better climate options.
Want to collect some owls, make a good place for rodents, or breed some rodents and drop them off. Dryland Owls outside of their reporduction cycle are extreamly mobile as they evolved in a desert.
The best option for AZ is buy the most remote property you can stand that has a proven well, improve a house, plant all the solar you can write off and sell it as soon as becomes close to one of the new cities, move to Wyoming and do the same thing. That was 20 years in 1990s, it is 20 months today. When they going to figure out baking in the sun without a hat causes death.
Golf causes even more death. Keep working, keep alive.
