Mellow yellow/Macro Monday

I went to see the marine iguanas and
fur seals on the island of Santa Cruz—
this flowering cactus was just a bonus.

  3. Google Translation from Swedish reflects my impression as well:
    “Lovely image; healthy, green-color cactus!”

    I was going to say—“With those cactus spines it is no wonder the iguanas are aquatic. They aren’t going to do much chowing down on those pads.” Or are they?
