Desert Museum



Our family had the opportunity to visit the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum near Tucson. What an amazing place! It was more of a living museum that highlights the plants and animals of the desert southwest.



A family of bobcats.



A nesting hummingbird.







Harris Hawks originated in Argentina and slowly made their way north. They arrived in Arizona about a hundred years ago and have adapted quite well.



A century plant.





Cactus flowers.



Agave plants.



I swear this lizard was following me back and forth along the glass.



This snake posed quite nicely.
