We’re just at the right elevation for Crucifixion Thorn (Canotia holacantha) and I noticed they were not only in bloom yesterday but had more blooms than I’ve seen since I’ve lived here so I went back this morning for a better shot. The bee was a bonus 🙂

With all the other cactus putting on such a good show this year, I am surprised our Saguaros are not as full of blooms as past years. Another thing I’ve noticed is a lower population of bees. This image was captured a few years ago.

Blooms are numerous on our cactus this Spring! This gorgeous orangy-red specimen is another of the non-natives in my yard. Capturing a fast moving native bee is always a bonus!

Monument Plant, Elkweed or Deer’s Ears….whatever you call it….it is definitely one of the most interesting flowers I’ve ever seen! Since I’ve posted photos of this flower before, I decided to give this a Topaz filter treatment. Canon 24-105mm @73mm. ISO 400, 1/400 sec At f/5.
