I see way too many shadows and a picture slightly out of focus.
The blooms are an indication that there has been enough water to support flowering and seeding for the next cycle.
The African Sumac (small weed like thing) indicates that it needs to be pulled before it becomes a total tree.
The spines on each of the cacti are all fishhooks, or play them on TV. But if necessary, can be used as needles or pins (and were used that way, once).
Most importantly - I see spring!
