In Search of the (Not so) Elusive Saguaro Flower - Part 2
Well I figured out that if you want to see Saguaro flowers you need to be in Sabino Canyon at 6:00 am not 6:00 pm. For the last few days I have been looking at 6:00 pm but the flowers are closed by then. Today I went at 6:00 am and they were all around.
Apparently at night some types of bats feed on and pollinate the Saguaro flowers. During the early morning White-Winged Doves like the guy below pollinate and eat the flowers.
Coming in for a little snack.
MMM that big flower looks good.
Let's get ready.
Eat!!!
The last picture is a prickly pear flower.
