PHOENIX'S DESERT BOTANICAL GARDEN IN ARIZONA

Back in March on a visit to the Botanical Garden in Phoenix with Larry, Eunice and Betty I photographed many beautiful butterflies....and a few birds, trees, rabbits. It's a great place to visit with countless photographic opportunities any time of the year.

I first took pictures of the Boojum tree with a woodpecker on top. Then I noticed a thrasher resting below while carrying nest building materials.

Later  a cardinal and hummingbird agreed to sit still long enough for their picture to be taken.

 Along the way to the butterflies an amazing display titled "The Four Seasons" by Philip Haas, towered over us. 

FINALLY, BUTTERFLIES!

Another great visit thanks to the pass we obtained at our Phoenix Public Library and their Culture Pass Program.      http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/pageView.jsp?id=10786
