Sonoran Desert After The Monsoon Rains

Unrecognizable!

The desert floor once covered by not much more than sand, cacti and mostly dry brush, is now full of life, full of greenery. Take a look at these photos and you will see how much the monsoon rains have transformed the Sonoran desert floor. Enjoy the greenery! :)

Barrel Cactus

Delicate little beauties everywhere.

Creosote

Greens everywhere!

Ocotillo

Berries!

These little yellow flowers are incredibly fragrant, I am yet to figure out their name but the scent is unbelievable for such small flowers.

I hope you enjoyed these photos as much as I enjoyed taking them. As usual, these photos were taken under extreme duress (meaning while with my kids and dog lol).

Ps. more desert photos to come, check back soon!
