LAST WEEK IN GREEN VALLEY

Last Saturday we went to Buenos Aires National Wildlife Refuge,  about an hour from Green Valley.  The refuge was started in 1985 to provide a breeding and sanctuary for the Masked Bobwhite and also habitat for the Pronghorn Antelope.  On this day they were having a fair to show the diversity of the refuge.  

On our way to the refuge, we stopped at Arivaca Cenega to see if there were any birds about.

Our weeks are starting to get busier so maybe my blogging will pick up.
