Self healing

This always happens whenever there is a heat spell. The birds will try and eat my peyote. Sometime they are successful sometimes not. Increasingly they are are finding my peyotes tasty. You can see a  part of the succulent eaten leaving a deep cut. Luckily they do recover and heal. Important not to let it get into contact with water or they will rot.  I need to put up some protection soon.
