A beautiful day in the neighborhood!

Look at the beautiful skies this morning here in sunny south Florida! I had to take some close ups of this really green and pink/red cactus that I love! It is a spineless Opuntia, and quite huge! I thought it looked so lovely against the blue sky!

Note the two ants on the right hand flower bud. Click to make larger to see easier....I didn't see them until I got the picture on the screen here!
