As the associate editor of Arizona Wildlife Views magazine, Julie Hammonds writes feature articles about wildlife and wildlife management issues. She's earned top awards from the Outdoor Writers Association of America and the Association for Conservation Information.

If you read Julie's 2010 articles, you now drink shade-grown coffee, chase red birds, refuse to stock mosquito fish in your backyard pond and spend lots of time outside with your family, having a great time exploring nature.

Want a taste of Julie's work? Some earlier articles are available here:

  • "Humpback Haven" takes readers to the Little Colorado River, where endangered native fishes survive and even thrive. For a photo tour of the Little Colorado, visit word4wildlife on Flickr.
  • "Wild at Art" celebrates a program offered by the Art Institute at the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum that combines artistic excellence with interest in the natural world.
  • “She’s Aiming High” examines women’s increasing participation in target shooting.
