Desert Museum

Here are just a few of the many wondrous things to see at the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum:

Aloes and other succulent plants

javelina sculptures

wildflowers such as these penstemons

prairie dogs

Beautiful views all around!

coyote

organ pipe cactus

cactus wren on saguaro ribs

bighorn sheep

trails to explore

bobcat

Mexican honeysuckle

The drive along the way to the museum is scenic too.  I thought the sky looked pretty that day, these clouds reminding me of wildflowers:
