I didn't know there was a Cactus Monday. Cool...wish I could join but there isn't just enough of them here to photograph. Love the words of Thoreau. Nice pick.
Love the quote---and the pictures, Diane. They go together so well... Cute little finch (at least they look like finches)... That cactus os so pretty...
Beautiful photos of the cactus and bird. I made the mistake of picking one of those pretty flowers once...spent a long time picking little things out of my hand.
fantastic shots and beautiful quote to go with it..
i love cactus, they thrive on very little attention you gave to them so long as they stayed on well lit areas they're happy. that's something i should be thinking of as well.
Diane, I am visiting again to let you know I just awarded you the Kreativ Blogger Award. It was just given to me by a fellow blogger, and I was asked to pass it along to others I admire. Please come by my blog and pick it up!
Wonderful photos, and I love the quote. So important to really live - what some people perceive as foolish decisions are actually the ones you look back on and think 'I'm so very very glad I made that choice!'

The birds are real experts when it come to avoiding cactus spines. It guess it comes from experience.. but that's living.
Love the cactus. Aren't House Finches just amazing how they have adapted to conditions all across the country.?. Happy CM.

I think that is just what this Finch is doing.
Happy Cactus Monday to you!
I love loosing myself in the woods. It takes more caution to suck the marrow of life in the desert. Nice captures. Great quote.

Lovely shot! Our cacti fruit are ready now, so I will watch out for little visitors too.
You captured such wonderful photos of the birds feeding on the cactus. And I love the quote from Thoreau...
your cactus is always a monday delight! 'love it!
Some very motivating words by Thoreau. As always, you've provided us viewers with a lovely and insightful view into desert life.

Wonderful Quote. So many of us are holding on to death. If we could only appreciate what is New, and we could all come back to Life.
Wow Diane,
awesome pics, especially the little ones. I'm going to tell Sreddy from Joan's blog about these blooming cacti!
Wonderful photos, and I love the quote. So important to really live - what some people perceive as foolish decisions are actually the ones you look back on and think 'I'm so very very glad I made that choice!'
Oh wow, Diane! Those are really good shots! So clear! You are so fortunate to have your feathered friends around all the time! Beautiful creatures! :)
Just wonderful- the words touched my heart and the pictures were perfect! Thanks!
How beautiful...love that big juicy tuna (fruit) on the cactus! You really do live in heaven! I adore Thoreau too! Lovely post!
I love the quote and the text Diane. I am determined to live until I die.
