Arizona Sonora Desert Museum - Hummingbirds, On the Museum Grounds, and Animal Shows

12/05/25 - 03/02/26

I spent three months in Tucson. During that time, I went to the Desert Museum about once a week. My favorite thing at the museum is the Raptor Free Flight show. Various raptors fly within inches of your head. I've even been hit in the head many times by a wing.

I also took part in a program called Avian Adventures where a Eurasain Eagle Owl flies to you and lands on your glove.
