Bosque del Apache

On our drive back to Tucson from Albuquerque, we stopped a few times in Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge, to see birds.  Located just south of San Antonio, New Mexico, the Bosque was established in 1939 to provide a stopover site for migrating waterfowl.  It is a refuge for tens of thousands of cranes, geese, and ducks every winter.  We saw a few hundred Canadian geese and ducks.
