"Breathe the sweetness that hovers in August."

―Denise Levertov

The prickly pear cactus and its blooms have shown up here a couple of times and I have to tell you that I am just awestruck that each one of these different prickly pear cacti can have a different flower. Some have yellow flowers, others have yellow with a red center and another type of prickly pear can have just red flowers. Nature is AMAZING! This image was photographed this spring at the Botanical Garden here in Phoenix. At that time there were blooms everywhere and the desert was bursting with transformation. So, today I present to you Fire Ducky.

As always, I hope that this cactus bloom will bring a smile to your face and brighten every day!
