Join us for a photographic journey to the national wildlife refuges of the southwest region. Photographer and Montezuma volunteer, Mark Miller, will take you through 2 dozen refuges, parks, and scenic areas on this slide show tour. Learn what some of the refuges have to offer to birdwatchers and nature enthusiasts. The journey covers a three week, 6600 mile driving trip from New York to Arizona and back. See a wide variety of bird species and other wildlife that call these refuges home.
