The tree behind Richard is an Ocotillo. This tree does not have any branches, the leaves are attached to the trunc. When it is raining it grow quickly a bunch of leaves. As soon as the humidity disapear, it loose its leaves to diminish its evaporation. In this case the Ocotillo has a lot of leaves, because a left over from a huricane on Baja California (Mexico) spread some rain, on the area. Soon Richard will be in an airplane on his way back home. We had a very nice trip all together. Richard pose devant un Ocotillo. C'est un arbre qui n'a pas de branche, les feuilles sont acrochees directement au tronc. lorsqu'il pleut, il met des feuilles tres rapidement, lorsque l'humidite disparait, il perds ces feuille pour survivre. En laissant tomber ces feuilles, il diminue son evaporation, d'ou agmente son espoir de survie dans le desert. Bientop Richard sera sur sa route de retour dans un avion. Nous avons eu un merveilleux voyage et desirons le refaire. |
