If you haven't been to the Phoenix Botanical Garden recently they have the butterfly tent full of monarchs right now. Make sure to bring a camera and know how to use the macro mode...

Yes, it is awesome. And if you go to the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum in Tucson, don't miss the Hummingbird enclosure!

That was my favorite part of the Sonoran Desert Museum. I think the last time I was there was in 1993. I think I need to get back there for some digital shots!

This is an excellent exhibit -- just make sure you go there when iot is warm so the butterflies are flying about!

Easier to take pictures when it's cool and they don't fly though Very Happy
