This is Prairie Cactus growing among mosses and lichens on some of the oldest exposed bedrock in the world along the Minnesota River near Redwood Falls, Minnesota.
The first time we came here, my great nephew had climbed up on this rocky bluff to relieve himself in the woods, and he yelled down to us "Hey, there's cactus growing up here!" to which we replied "Yeah right". Convinced that it had to be something else, we went up there to check it out and sure enough, there it was!

Here you go! Prairie dog, in costume.
The worst part wasn't the costume really. It was the fact that this poor guy had to stand with another similarly dressed prairie dog and not move. They were the "net" line for a family's volleyball game.
This was in the park in front of Himeji Castle.
