Cacti Blooms
The heron nests were quite far away and of course I didn't pack my Panasonic zoom 35-420; you can see how far away the tree is, but I stepped a wee bit closer to get a snap of the "babes" with my point and shoot Sony with the Carl Zeiss lens.

What a perfect time of year for new life! Cactus flowers are such a beautiful contrast to their spiny hosts.
Karen - each image is glorious!!! The transparency of the petals of the flowers is what I love. A real delight to get to view them. So happy you are sharing them with Photo Art Friday.
