While we were wandering around the desert yesterday in search of rock treasures, I found some hidden gems:
An infant saguaro nestled in the arms of a palo verde,
new green grass growing everywhere,
emerald moss, soft as velvet,
a pile of mud that turned into
milky chalcedony,
a herd of (4) cattle
cigarette butts? no, millipede exoskeleton,
cheerful red fruits from last spring’s flowers.
We are always on the lookout for unusual saguaro. Exiting our afternoon adventure I found this one with many full-sized arms straight up.
Come back tomorrow and see what we saw today.
