Saguaro Home

We wondered if Saguaro bloom and they do, but they are later than a lot of the other cactus. This is atop a 20 foot Saguaro that is down the street from us here at Sun Life in Mesa. Several birds have made homes inside this one..it's lots cooler in there they say! This little woodpecker is actually making his nest; lower down is a blackbird who probably stole his nest from someone else. The blooms become seed pods that were very important to the Indians for food.
