Pima County oasis on Tucson’s northeast side where a perennial warm spring feeds ponds and cottonwood-willow habitat. Paths around the water host waterfowl, waders, dragonflies, and desert-edge songbirds; a ranch-house visitor center and art gallery interpret the long human use of the spring. Watchable-wildlife favorite separate from the city’s constructed Sweetwater Wetlands.
