  1. Tucson skyline at twilight. Found this great lineup of skyline and cactus while wandering the desert last night with my camera.

  2. It was a magical time sitting on a bench in the middle of the desert at night watching the lightning go crazy behind the mountains.

  3. Did a family trip down South to the desert and had to find the old growth Cacti. Learned these cactus's are pretty rare, only place in the world these are found. Always curious to learn more about nature. Thats me next to this giant! Saguaro National Park, AZ.

  4. I keep a Perpetual Journal; here are my entries from 1, 2 & 3 years ago this week: organic local produce; 9 Saguaro seedlings; Palo Verde seedlings. We donated our baby Saguaros to a local enviro. non-profit & now we’re just starting to see little PV seedlings.

  6. @kilevra Ich habe vor den #Saguaro s aus Kunststoff auch #Wildlinge aus Hanf getragen. Gingen viel schneller kaputt und schon der Morgentau auf ner Wiese reicht für nasse Füße.

  7. inspired by:

    • the luminous red nova of the monoceros (unicorn) constellation (v838 monocerotis) [1]

    • cactus blossoms, especially saguaro [2] and prickly pear [3, 4]

    • snakes as mythological bringers of life and light (hail satan :black_sparkling_heart:)

  8. Saw something today I've never seen before! A Western screech owl tucked away in their little cactus home! So pleased I was able to get a couple decent photos of it.

  9. It's that time of year! 🌼 Some fun saguaro facts:
    - Saguaros do not begin blooming until they are at least 30-35 years old
    - Each flower is only open for 18-24 hours
    - Saguaros appear to flower in a counter-clockwise direction, with buds first appearing on the east side, then the north, and then the west

  10. Saguaro cactus are one of my favorite plants. They live long, and the arms sometimes emerge between 75-100 years old. This was one of my all-time favorite places to camp.

  11. @officialjtron The work of Chronolog is really interesting for sure. Photo monitoring sites can be found around the world - Denmark, Australia, Africa, etc. Closer to home, one can see Chronolog images from California MPAs (Bodega Head) or the King Range National Conservation Area. These two images, one from California, one from Arizona, show a bit of the site diversity. Image credit Chronolog.

  12. #SaguaroSaturday 🌵

    A few short saguaros are visible, but what is the cluster of cactus on the left that looks like Organ Pipe Cactus? I took this photo in the Mesa area, and I don’t think Organ Pipe Cacti are native here. Was it likely planted, or could it be something else that resembles Organ Pipe?

  13. So, die von @MeierSchulze empfohlenen #Saguaro sind angekommen.

    Ersteindruck: Sowohl die Sommer- als auch Winterschuhe sind deutlich fester als Leguano, fast schon wie normale Schuhe. Ob ich das gut finde muss ich erst noch rausfinden, aber es lässt zumindest hoffen, dass die Winterschuhe dann auch dichter sind. 😀
