 ASDM - INFO TABLE by matcrazy1 Arisona Sonora Desert Museum is open daily, including all holidays! That's OK. They open quite early, at 7:30 am but they close too early in my opinion: at 5:00 am - loooong before sunset! WHY? More: when I was there they finished to sell tickets at 4:00 pm. A park ranger said that one needs at least 1 hour to visit the museum. To be honest you need 2-3 hours to visit it. Leave a Comment

 HISTORICAL TABLE by matcrazy1 As you can write on the table: The Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum was founded by Arthur N. Pack and William H. Carr in 1952. It was on 1 September, to be more exact, which is a national holiday in the USA: Labour Day. We have Labour Day on 1 May in Europe. Leave a Comment

 URSULA AND ARIZONA AGAVE by matcrazy1 You can find Arizona Agave in Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum. I saw a lot of various species of agaves in southern Europe and northern Africa and I must admit that Arizona Agave looked really impressive. MORE: Arizona Agave Leave a Comment

 COLORADO RIVER FISHES DISPLAY by matcrazy1 You can get a lot of information on fish of Colorado River inside Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum. There are fishes which are endemic to the Colorado River drainage, meaning they are native to this area and nowhere else. All are endangered. Leave a Comment

 URSULA AND CACTI HEDGEROW :-) by matcrazy1 Sometimes cacti grow very close together, just ony by one. They can form a strange, sharp wall as you can see on my picture taken in Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum. Could it be a kind of your hedgerow? Btw it's Organpipe cactus. Leave a Comment
