Join Kimberly Aikins of the Southern Arizona Accessible Wildlife Refuge (SAAWR) for an outing designed for nature lovers with accessibility challenges; wheelchairs, walkers, and other assistive devices are welcome. On this trip, we will gather and sit at the Ron Morriss County Park in Tubac to appreciate the annual raptor migration as they migrate along the neighboring Santa Cruz River, as well as other birds that may visit the park.
