Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.)

I chose this article because I enjoy bird watching while I camp/hike. These observatories for bird watching allows the birds a safe spot to rest while the migrate. This location is a top five birding site in the US and it contributes to the economy there.

There is good information about the topic and it is short and to the point in the introduction. However, there is no outline of the article's sections. The article has current information and is up to date on the latest update to the article. It is written in a neutral tone with no opinions being given. There is no trying to persuade the reader that this birding spot is really good it just states the facts about it. All sources are cited within the article as well as at the end and are credible as well. With the article having six different sources it has a multitude of different opinions backing up this article also. The links do work so that way you can deep dive into more specific information if needed. The article is easy to read and straight forward. There are no pictures of the species of birds that might be seen. Nor is there pictures of the park either. There is no talk board activity and the article is rated as Start-class/Low-importance by wikipedia. It is marked by Arizona as low importance as this seems to be important to a select few people there. The article is an active page still to this day. I would include pictures of the visitor center and of the variety of birds that can been seen migrating there. Also I might add a section to when the best time of the year would be to come and bird watch. Also adding times that are less busy would allow for the possibility of more people coming to the park just to enjoy the peace and quietness. The strengths of the article are the straight forward to the point tone it has with nothing but information on the topic you clicked on to read about. The article is is not under developed or over developed but rather just on the cusp of becoming something really good and really informative with a little bit a work from the wikipedia community.
