Too bad you don't have a Sonoran Raven, but it might not be as dark and mysterious as this one.

They are on top of those saguaro cactus which are very very tall....somewhere around 20 feet or more!!! Right now they have flowers on them, but I'll try and get the fruit at the end of the month. They're really tasty....if the birds don't get them first:)Rohrerbothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02136631378931478644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4196318759342517444.post-35829586878497185752012-05-10T06:21:00.599-07:002012-05-10T06:21:00.599-07:00You definitely should read the books.
