Desert Birds, Bats and Wildflowers – California and Yuma, AZ

Amazon.com
Travelscope discovers the desert’s subtle attractions when Joseph travels from California Wildflowers to Yuma, Arizona’s Birding and Nature Festival. Each year the California desert is awash in color as the region’s flora springs to live after much needed spring rains. Joseph visits Joshua Tree National Park and then heads north to Lancaster, California for the annual California Poppy extravaganza.

Yuma, Arizona is more than the Southern gateway to California. According to Farmer’s Almanac, it has the best weather in the country, it’s the site of the Yuma Crossing National Heritage Area, and it’s the country’s highest producer of winter vegetables — and the habitat for more than 380 species of birds.

Joseph heads to Yuma for its annual tribute to our fine feathered friends during the Birding and Nature festival – five days of exhibitions, seminars, events and field trips celebrating Yuma’s natural side. In Yuma, the Colorado River brings life to the desert attracting hundreds of species of birds, as well as birdwatchers.

This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media. Amazon.com’s standard return policy will apply.
