The cactus are confused! Now that the temps at least start out under 100, I can go for walks. The night-blooming cactus that normally bloom in the spring are enjoying the lower temps...

Now that the temps at least start out under 100, I can go for walks. The night-blooming cactus that normally bloom in the spring are enjoying the lower temps as well, and are blooming now! I've sort of kept an eye on them, trying to get them before they go away. These are ones I captured this morning.

Yeah, I know this isn't a flower. But I so seldom get a recognizable picture of a bird, I had to include it!

We're still going over 100 during the day, but at least the mornings are cool. In fact, I'm looking for my wool socks!

Thanks!

Beautifully done, Kathy. For me, the cactus flower is one of the beauties of the flower world.
