Mexican firebush, also called hummingbird plant, is a tropical shrub native in tropical climes around the Gulf of Mexico. My bush is thriving now and is already ready for the arrival of the Hummingbirds as they stop to feed before starting their 500 mile non-stop journey across the Gulf of Mexico.
Zihuatanejo is a resort city on Mexico’s Pacific Coast, northwest of Acapulco. It’s known for its beaches, like the sweeping Playa La Ropa, which is backed by palm trees. Galleries and seafood restaurants line the city’s winding lanes. Offshore, the sea teems with marine life such as dolphins and sea turtles.
is an evergreen shrub, native to Mexico, and also naturalized in Florida. The flowers are white, extending from red bracts which look somewhat like shrimps, hence the common name "shrimp flower". The bracts start out white, but with more sun exposure they turn anywhere from pale pink to deep salmon. A chain of bracts will continue to grow until it falls off in most cases; thus the chains can grow anywhere from a few centimetres to nearly 30 cm (1 ft) in length. Blooming continues for months once it has begun, then halts for a short period before starting again. The flowers attract hummingbirds and butterflies. Pollination is usually by hummingbirds.

Yucatan - Chichen Itza - Maya pyramid
MEX0043.1.BW.F
Chichen Itza was a major focal point in the Northern Maya Lowlands from the Late Classic (c. AD 600–900) through the Terminal Classic (c. AD 800–900) and into the early portion of the Postclassic period (c. AD 900–1200). The site exhibits a multitude of architectural styles, reminiscent of styles seen in central Mexico and of the Puuc and Chenes styles of the Northern Maya lowlands. The presence of central Mexican styles was once thought to have been representative of direct migration or even conquest from central Mexico, but most contemporary interpretations view the presence of these non-Maya styles more as the result of cultural diffusion.
Chichen Itza was one of the largest Maya cities and it was likely to have been one of the mythical great cities, or Tollans, referred to in later Mesoamerican literature. The city may have had the most diverse population in the Maya world, a factor that could have contributed to the variety of architectural styles at the site.
This formation is found near the little town of Mexican Hat, Utah. The town is named after this hat-like formation. This is located in the Four Corners section of the US Southwest. The geology of this area is very interesting and colorful. Behind the 'hat' you can see the tilted and eroded layers of sediments. Nikon F3, 200mm lens, Kodacolor, scanned from print.
