| The long beak apparently is used for nectar-feeding in flowers of the saguaro Cactus. |
| While most saguaro cacti grow in a typical fashion, a few individuals will grow in an atypical form known as a cristate or crested saguaro. |
| The little unincorporated community sits in a lonely stretch of hot desert amidst black rocks and saguaro cactuses. |
| It is situated high up in the crotch of open-crowned trees, on top of treelike saguaro cactuses, on cliff ledges, poles, or buildings. |
| Of the cactus family, the most conspicuous is the saguaro, or giant cactus, which frequently attains the height of fifty feet. |
| There was neither road nor house, only a saguaro here, a barrel cactus there, a lot of sand underfoot, and even more sun overhead. |
