A very happy saguaro.

We walked many trails in the Catalina State Park.

An older saguaro watches over us.

While on a photo hunt off a horse trail, a horse back rider notice my presence high on a hill and asked me to remain still as her horse could be "spooked" since mountain lions have been sighted in the area. I encouraged her not to be worried because if I see a mountain lion the object passing her and the horse will be me on my way back to the camp ground. She took little comfort in my warning!

Note: many desert birds live in cacti.
