A beautiful Saguaro Cactus, adorned with her captivating flowers, sits overlooking the desert. Many would consider saguaro cacti the iconic mascot of our beautiful Sonoran Desert. Her flowers provide food to insects and birds, her fruit feeds many more, and her thick skin provides refuge for owls and woodpeckers.
Even in death, this cactus provides shelter for ground-dwellers, and an entire ecosystem within her decomposing innards.
