Seguaro bones

Back home from the warmer temps of the Phoenix area. On our first hike, I spotted the remnants of a seguaro. The softer exterior, its armor if you will, shields the inner wood which is a wonder unto itself.

@fbailey The wood inside is prized by collectors for craving but protected.

@golftragic These cacti are very long living and very resilient, often just continuing to grow in spite of damage.

@onewing I wish that they survived up here in Flagstaff but they need lower elevations.

@eudora Thank you, my husband said that this reminded him of a small bird being fed. I kinda see that.

@haskar Thank you so kindly for the fav, I am very grateful.
