These Red Mexican Bird of Paradise flowers are pretty awesome when they are in bloom and attract an assortment of desert wildlife, insects and interesting critters. Looking closely you can see the pollen and how easy this flower makes it for bees to pollinate.

Its starting to warm up now and will soon be hot as hell here in the desert, so I am enjoying the last few moments of temperatures under 100 degrees.

They are a brilliant bloom indeed. Which desert to you live in?

I am in Arizona, Sonoran desert

wow that's so nice. I bought a bird of paradise plant that look very different from that, it looks like a bird head

Same here, I had to google it to make sure I had the name right. The bird of paradise you mentioned is a flower that looks like the head of a bird. If you google key words "Mexican bird of paradise" you will see the flower I took pictures of.
