Snowbirds



After the clouds and the wild light came the snow. The small town covered in no time. No more porch red and forest green, no more tan and white. Just cactus, agave in the snow and then followed a night of deep freeze frost. That is why there is no saguaro growing in this area. You find prickly pear, beaver tail, cholla, teddy bear cactus...
Animals have a hard time, so I feed them a bit. Yet I wonder how they know within minutes that the buffet is open.
