Description
While out on my walk, native flowers were the order of the day. I came across this Red Mexican Bird of Paradise, it is a common landscaping shrub or small tree in the Arizona Sonoran Desert. It is native to Northern Mexico.
It has such colorful blooms and lacy leaves that adorn them. Bright orange/red threads come off the flowers, reminding me of a spinning pinwheel I had as a child. It certainly was no trouble to capture these beauties. In fact the opposite, done so with such joy, so definitely I could say, "No Trouble In Paradise!"
