Superior, AZ ~ Boyce Thompson Arboretum

Boyce Thompson Arboretum came highly recommended as a great place to visit so when Babs, a birding pal suggested going there my first day in AZ, I was ready.  Babs lives in the area and is very familiar with the park so is able to get navigate without a map and knows the best places to find birds.  There is some gorgeous scenery and wonderful plantings in the park.  Here are some of them.
