Cholla Cactus

This is different than the chollas I usually blip.  I found it just inside the desert gate and I think it's called a teddy bear cholla (pronounced choy'-a). Not sure.  I liked it in mono a lot better than in color.
Thanks for all of the comments, stars and hearts on yesterday's Cooper's hawk.  Glad you liked it.

She replied, "Of course I can, but that would defeat the purpose, now wouldn't it?"
