I visited Usery Mountain Regional Park for the first time in spring 2019. It was the height of the saguaro bloom and the pollinators were hard at work, turning the pinnacles of these giant cacti into bustling communities. It truly “takes a village” to pollinate a saguaro. At night, they are pollinated by the lesser long-nosed bat and the Mexican long-tongued bat, and during the daytime, bees and birds such as the white-winged dove take their turns at the activity.
