I tried to report this cactus and the rabbit warren on Collector but "Collector stopped working".

I thought I was the one with senior's moments. I am not familiar with Echium vulgare rosettes. It does not look right for Patersons Curse.

Yes, there is Echium plantagineum (which is so common I am not reporting it) but I wanted to record the Opuntia sp. which could be O. stricta or O. ficus-indica. Whichever it is I will remove it before it flowers. I realise now I should have cropped the picture. The CNM sighting report ws an alternative to Parks and Conservation Collector app which wasn't working.
