Known as a century plant,
But in name only.

White Winged Dove On A ‘Nest’ Of Saguaro Buds 4 comments
This White Winged dove stands among a bouquet of Saguaro buds. Image by kenne
Migrating each year
To the Sonoran desert
For cactus nectar.
She awaits blossoms
Soon to open with nectar
In the night darkness.
Nearby cactus bloom,
But she waits among the buds
To open this night.
First serving the bats
She takes her turn each morning
In the warming sun.

Potted Cactus Blooms A Month Early 2 comments
Images by kenne
This yellow blooming cactus in our desert courtyard is blooming one month earlier than last year. Probably due to the warmest January and February in the Sonoran desert on record.

“Everything tells me
that I am about to
make a wrong decision,
but making mistakes
is just part of life.
What does the world want of me?
Does it want me to take no risks,
to go back to where I came from
because I didn’t have the courage
to say “yes” to life?”
— Paulo Coelho
