Photo: Agave Unfurling

Here is a macro photo of one of my Agave cactus.

You can see that the next leaf of the succulent is getting ready to unroll.

The tiny spines are ready to protect the plant.

Did you know that agaves are actually succulents?  We still call them cactus but that is not technically correct.

This week we are showing photos of the waterfowl of Lake Nicaragua on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site.
