About Woody & Nature Jottings

Woody Hume cares for the land and livestock in the Middle San Pedro River Valley of southern Arizona. Woody is a skilled naturalist and keen observer of the birds and wildlife that visit the pastures, stock pond, and mesquite bosque where he works.

The Sweetwater Center shares excerpts from his writings as part of our work exploring links between conservation and agriculture.

Woody uses the Tucson Audubon Society's book, Finding Birds in Southeast Arizona.
