This giant claret cup cactus (or cacti in a bundle?!) was amazing, and I tried to get various horses in the same frame with it without success. Alegre wasn’t suuuuuper cooperative in that way, but I managed to get her as she grazed her way from behind a four-wing saltbush – without shaving off part of her face. 🙂

Those claret cups are always just stunning…and so is Alegre! Nice photo, TJ! I like that lacy saltbush too. 🙂
They’re kind few and far between this year, but the ones blooming are as gorgeous as always. 🙂 And Alegre, too, as always, of course!
Very nice picture!
Thanks, Karen. 🙂
You were quick on the shutter finger for this one.
Those clarets are a beautiful site to see in the desert.
I was glad she wasn’t bothered enough by me to pause her grazing … and she didn’t! Ha. 🙂 Those claret-cup blooms are such bright spots in our otherwise very brown landscape.
It could be nature sent Alegre a bouquet a bouquet 💐 😁

She found it, for sure. 🙂
