Cactus Monday's Haiku


Our Saguaro in the front has a nest started between the arms.  I wrote the haiku and was going to sketch it but decided to practice my printing instead.


See the strands of weed to start a nest?  The hole just above it has also been a nesting area.
This Saguaro has gone crazy with growing arms.  I counted 12 so far.  To think there were none when we moved to this house 5-6 years ago.

Happy Cactus Monday!

How can a bird build a nest in those prickly things? I am sure its safe from predators there.. LOL Well done on the sketch & printing.

I saw the words before the pic came up and I was wondering what kind of weed are we talking about?!! LOL I'm amazed at various birds ability to create nests in all sorts of places. Nice sketch - captures it very well!
