The month of March is when the smaller cactus start to bloom.  The blooms only last a couple of days so everyone is kind of on the hunt for taking good photos.
There are also white and pink blooms, but I didn't get those pics in time.
On our hike to Madera Canyon we rested at the Santa Rita lodge.  It's an area known for birding.  At the lodge there were benches set up to view about 40 bird feeders and it was fun to watch the many different, colorful birds who fed there.
A late stroll around the compound last night and this is the moon starting to come over the mountains.  Really fun to watch it rise.
And this morning as I was heading to the grocery store I noticed that Oracle Avenue was "on fire".  There were two men trying to put out about six small roadside fires.  It eventually was contained by the FD, but kind of spooky to see something like that.
