Hey! I think it might be a Northern Cardinal (Cardinalis cardinalis) that is very common in Southern Arizona. Although I live in Germany I have been many times in Tucson/Bisbee/Tombstone, and there I have seen that kind of bird pretty often...
New housemaid? I'm just kiddin' :) These racoons are really cute, but bold too!
Oh, I would say about 8-9 cm (3,5 inches), it was a big one :)
