The wren in the cactus flowers

The Wren in the Cactus Flowers

Piece description from the artist

The Cactus Wren is the largest of the wren family and makes its home in the cacti and saguaros native to the state of the Arizona. This photograph was taken in Sedona, Arizona this Spring capturing the cactus flowers in full bloom. The added bonus after much patient waiting was the appearance of the Cactus Wren that makes its home in the cactus. The colors are the natural colors of the plant and have not been manipulated. The image is unique because it's not easy to capture the otherwise elusive bird.
