A Prickly Hug

in #fun3 years ago

This post is for @armandosodano. He is always ending his post with a hug for everyone.

These prickly hugs were from our trip to the Arizona- Sonora Desert Museum
and the Saguaro National Park. I found it very interesting that the trees would grow up and around the saguaros in a way that it looks like they are hugging the cactus.

A prickly hug from Arizona!

Warning below... about hugging cactus. Thank goodness for a very nice husband!

Jumping Cholla do just that detach and then attach themselves (and their long spikes) to things that pass by, or in this case get to close.

hahaha thanks for the mention, i'm specializing in hugging cactus too. Always amazing photos! by the way, the tracking of the package tells me it is almost at your house.

Ha ha glad you liked the prickly hug. I am excited for the package. :)

Totally impressive, Sare..!!! Are prickly hugs taller than me Sara? ( I'm 61 inches 😃)
Fun and great idea to attach them on the clothes so no one can touch us 😄

Yes, the straight ones with arms can be up to 12 meters tall.

Prickly hug! Seems risky ha. The jumping cholla remind me of standard burs but a little more dangerous lol
