The Bird's Nest



Another phase in the life of a saguaro is that of a home. Many wrens and other birds find homes in the saguaro. This photograph expresses the interaction between plants and animals, as well as the ability for this wildlife to coexist.

They compare the desert to the “dead land” of the world, but somehow this miraculous plant can surpass all the heat and exhaustion that comes its way. In this picture, the cactus is perfectly pleasant per say with not a thing bugging it, not even the heat of the hot sun high in the sky.

Young Saguaro



The beginning life of a cactus is so different from that of ours. A cacti lives on it’s own, going through life all alone taking on everything that comes in it’s path-including drought, birds, and other animals. This is one of the most amazing plants in the Arizona desert.
