Carnegiea gigantean
This cactus species can grow to heights of more than 20 meters (~70 ft) and live as long as 150 years. Birds may build nests in them. I tend to see faces and figures of people in many of them. Some saguaro cacti are "crested" (third photo) due to fasciation, instead of having arms. In the state of Arizona, it is illegal to harm a saguaro.
Countryside near Phoenix
One photo was on 10 April.
