Just a road trip pic that I took a few months back; we were heading back into Phoenix from a trip to the rim country near Payson

Birds of Prey show
If you look closely, you'll see a group of people in the middle of the desert - they were all watching the hawk above them, in a birds of prey show at the Arizona-Sonoran Desert Museum

A little bit of shelter
Shade is hard to come by in the desert; this little structure at the Arizona-Sonora desert museum helps a bit

Can you see him?
The mountain lion is perched up on the rock, but he blends in so well he's very easy to miss; this was taken out at the Arizona-Sonoran Desert Museum

Love kitties
These two bobcats blend in quite well with the rocks, don't they? Happy Valentine's Day!

Partners
In the front of the Arizona-Sonoran Desert Museum, you will notice the American flag flying alongside the Mexican flag, with the Arizona state flag underneath - I believe this is because the museum is a partnership between the two countries, as the Sonoran desert really stretches through both countries and the efforts at conservation are on both ends

Saguaro skeletons
The coyote exhibit at the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum looks like it's just part of the desert; one way they camoflauge it is to use saguaro skeletons to hide the fence posts

coyote... and a weird saguaro
They have some great animal exhibits at the Arizona-Sonoran Desert Museum; here is the coyote exhibit - can you see him? If you click to enlarge the picture, you can probably see the wire fencing they use, otherwise it looks like they are just roaming around wild; I also like the saguaro in the background with the mysterious missing top

Which way should we go?
Yesterday, we went to the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum down by Tucson - it was a beautiful day, and it's a really beautiful outdoors museum, with great animal exhibits; I'll post some of my shots over the next week

Looking out at Tempe Town Lake
We went to a Childsplay production again, held at the Tempe Center for the Arts - we saw Busytown, which was a hit with the kids - this picture was taken from inside, looking out at the reflective pool and beyond to Tempe Town Lake

Daily Photo Theme Day - Paths and Passages
It's the first of the month, which means another theme day on Daily Photo - for this month's theme, I picked a labyrinth that is in the empty lot beside the Chandler Presbyterian Church - it is owned by the church, but I never see it being used - it looks peaceful, though
There are daily photo sites all over the world participating in today's theme day.Click here to view thumbnails for all participants
