1. Cactuses have beautiful flowers!
I zoomed in on the flowers of a neighbor's cactus.
2. Rabbits run wild in Sun City. Here is a baby bunny that lives in my father's cactus.

This is the cactus where the bunny lives--and notice it has beautiful orange flowers on it! |
4. You can often spot a lizard sunning itself in the yard.
5. Quail are everywhere! I took a picture of this one perched on my father's roof!
In the spring time it is very common to see a mother and father leading their babies across a yard or even across the street. This is a picture of some baby quail by the side of a neighbor's bush.
In this picture you can see how little they are next to their parents! |
6. Cactuses come in a lot of shapes--this is called a globe cactus.
We learned that it takes between 50-75 years until a cactus grows one arm.
This is a picture of my husband checking out what's called the ribs on a dead saguaro in the Desert Awareness Park.
7. Not all deserts are an occasional cactus and sage brush, the Sonoran Desert has trees, bushes, and many varieties of cactus!
8. Cactuses make forests too just like evergreen trees!
