Great show!
You both have taken really awesome pictures of beautiful plants!

Cool,,,,, Thanks for the encouraging words everyone.
Oh, my big Cholla cactus now has two bird nests. The first already fledged two birdies. The Cholla is catching on. I do not think the birds around here ever saw a Cholla !!
