Description
During the winter months in the desert Southwest, such as in Arizona, this uncommon occurance will happen if the temperatures drop and the precipitation turns to snow at the lower elevations. It is always an exciting event to see snowfall on the saguaro cactus plants in the desert. I am certain the Gambel's Quail are never really happy when that occurs. Lucky for them the snow usually melts during the sunny daytime hours. Many times during the winter months snow can be seen on the mountain tops surrounding the Valley of the Sun, but it is never really expected to frost the various cacti! This type of scenery brings feeling of the Christmas Holidays and I think this watercolor painting would make an excellent Christmas card.
