It’s time to pack up the old saddlebags and head for different mountains. As of November I will be a resident of New Mexico. I took a last walk through Saguaro this morning, lingering for a while in the stillness of the Lime Falls, watching and listening to the wildlife around me going about [...] If you haven’t been to the Southwest in the summer, you might conjure up a dry dessicated season here. That describes late spring, but in the mid-summer we start getting massive importations of water from both oceans. Water evaporates out of those bodies, peregrinates thousands of miles over large sections of the continent then [...] So the saguaros have developed some stubble on their tops this year, some have a lot and some none at all. The stubble is slowly opening into some flowers with art-deco veins in the stalks. This is looking up, flower is 15 or so feet off the ground. I also ran across this [...] The bees are buzzing, the flowers are being buzzed, and the sun is rounding up for the blast-furnace intensity of summer. Took a few flower photos in Saguaro National Park today, these were along the Tanque Verde trail. |
