Arizona Sonoran Desert Muse

We got a fairly early start so that we could be at the Museum by 9:30. (Park was about one hour away.) We had hoped to catch that Raptor flight show that started at 10:00. We did but from a distance, no up close looks, too many people beat us there. But we still had a fairly good view of the birds as they were in the air. No tethers, just flying and soaring from perch to perch.
This park is huge and has a lot to see and walk through. It's a combination of a desert animal zoo and a desert botanical garden. We spent the day there, having lunch on site and attending a live reptile show as well. But mostly, we just walked and enjoyed all the various cacti and desert plants; so many of them were in bloom. Had to call it quits by about four because the RV park required us to be back inside the gate by 5:00. Sort of an unusual practice.Read more
