Convenience Food
When I come across a Packrat midden, I like to look closer to see if it’s active. Fresh cholla balls (food source) on and around the midden are typically an indication of an active midden. In this case, though, there were no cholla in sight. However, some green caught my eye and upon closer inspection, I noticed they have a very convenient food source!

These are also choice hibernacula for rattlesnakes, who sometimes go it alone in our desert.
Thanks for adding that!
