This was taken a month or so back, I thought it was an interesting cactus (or succulent, maybe?) - one with little leaves on it. These leave are supposedly for capturing droplets of water for the few times it does rain. They're just big enough to cup the water like a tiny eavestrough/sponge, but small enough they don't take a lot of energy up for the plant.

More to come soon...

(Note - after posting I noticed there's a lot of spots and fuzziness in the photo.. might re-upload it later to Picasa. Sometimes Google's converter isn't so nice to photos when scaling them down to reasonable web-sizes..)
