A little stroll through the pasture today and remembered the phone has a camera. Here's Echinocactus texensis 'Devil's Pincushion' with some very, very red fruit and surrounded by a fire ant mound. Fire ants do this a lot around this cactus. Not sure what the attraction is.
A relatively young clump of Echinocereus reichenbachii 'cob cactus' looking especially nice today.
And an older clump of Echinocereus reichenbachii 'cob cactus' which is perched on the edge of an erosion gully with lots of progeny strung out below it. Not sure if they were offsets or from seeds or some of both.
One more of Echinocereus reichenbachii 'cob cactus' thriving in the crevices of some limestone cropping out of the slope.
Most of the opuntia is finished blooming, but there are still a few with blooms. Opuntia elata, I think.
