We all knew which cactus he meant, of course. The Saguaro cactus can grow to be twenty feet tall, maybe more.
Birds poke holes in the outer skin, and the holes enlarge each year as new bird families nest.
A proper Saguaro can look quite formidable, with its many flailing arms, one or two eyes, and assorted nesting and perching denizens. We joined them as they tried to chase C.Bear around the bedroom, but we couldn't catch him either. The days of summer meander through the middle months of the year like a slow, lazy river. This is a surefire recipe for Bear boredom. We do try to introduce new activities to break the daily routine for them, but it is hard to second-guess what is going to capture the Bears' imaginations.
