 That is pretty cool, we are cactus free out here, always thought they were pretty interesting planT.  You need to run some razor wire along the top of that wall  :innocentwhistle:

Looks really nice, but I actually saw the sun here in Ohio today.  I do have a question for you.  Is that a diver duck (top of the picture about a third of the way in from the left) heading into the bird house in the first picture?

Jerry, sorry for the late response but my previous problem has returned and I'm having more problems getting around then before.  But the white thing you see, believe it or not is part of a White-wing dove.

Just another ugly backyard cactus.

I hate to here your going through mobility issues again John. Just seems so unfair for all you have done.

Beauty!

We hit the SW during spring bloom of many kinds of desert flowers on our trip last week.  Gorgeous.  In Arches National Monument there must have been a dozen different flowers, and my favorite was a small barrel cactus with a purple or lavender flower on top, like JohnP shows.  Yet Bryce Canyon, with its rococo art style of crazy red rock spires and towers, was loaded with snow.

When we left here about May 1, our daffodils and tulips were past, we had mowed our lawn three or four times and when we got back day before yesterday, the rhododendrons were in full bloom.

John,

Sorry to hear you are having problems. I really enjoy looking at the pictures that you post.  Now were you out there with your pellet gun again and that dove was headed down to be part of your dinner after another awesome shot?   :innocentwhistle:
