I timed my visit to #BigBend to see the Ocotillos in bloom, when they transform from thorns to delicately leaved stalks topped with red flowers.

#Ocotillos now available as a framed canvas print

Fascinated by ocotillos, admire them in Tucson annually while visiting family annually late April/early May.
