The Sonoran Desert is a beautiful place.
An assortment of cacti and other vegetation. Every saguaro seems to have a bird or two perched on top in the early morning sun.
A closer look at the top of one particular saguaro....yes, a Gilded Flicker pair (Colaptes chrysoides)
The trail ahead....
More photos to come.
