Nice...looks like near Tucson?
At the Sonoran Desert museum near Tucson, all the Saguaro cactus have been fitted with LoJack tracking devices because thievery of them is so common. People pay thousands to have one in their yard. A 1.5 inch tall Saguaro is 10 years old, life span can reach 200 years.

Actually it is the north of Phoenix. They are quite unique. We have several growing in our neighborhood that attracts certain kinds of birds.

Thank - you. I actually do have a cropped version and it does make a difference. Thanks for the tip, appreciate it much!
