I haven't been to the Desert Botanical Garden since the beginning of June because it's been too hot to be walking in the desert. When I looked for the photo of the crested saguaro that I posted yesterday I found a few more that are worth posting. In the one above, I caught a very large bumble bee buzzing around a saguaro bloom.
Here is another photo of an old favorite, the Desert Rose. They are so pretty, I can never resist another photo.
A beautifully shaped agave.
And lastly, a lovely Yerba Mansa bloom. There are many of these clustered around the pond at the garden.
Beautiful photos Sharon.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! And you captured the Bumble Bee very well!

ReplyDeleteBird or bee? Such nice colors in the flower.
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThe pic of the agave is lovely, Sharon!
ReplyDeleteI love your first image with the bee fying in. Awesome capture, Sharon.
ReplyDeleteFabulous captures! The first image is a stunner!
ReplyDeleteNice selection of photos! I love the desert rose. The flowers look so delicate for such a harsh environment. (Much like many cactus blossoms.)
ReplyDeleteLooks very interested in those flowers, hopefully he gets what he needs from them.
