Nature is Awesome...

and we are reminded of it each time we encounter its grandeur.

Some of what we see is astonishing and can't be denied...

the vista that spreads out before us as we travel over a mountain pass.

Some of what we see is subtle and can be easily missed...

the way a seemingly dry ocotillo springs to life after a rainstorm - its gray limbs covered with tiny green leaves;

The graceful, slow flight of the great egret with its pristine plumage, its neck pulled back in an s-curve;

or the exoskeleton of a tiny leaf cutter ant with its armor-like spikes.

Whether you are focused on the details or the entirety of nature, its greatness inspires us all.

For almost 60 years the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum has been dedicated to studying and celebrating nature in the Sonoran Desert. We invite you to join us on our journey of discovery, partner with us in our mission of conservation, and support us in our continuing work.
