I racked a 4-5 month old prickly pear mead into secondary yesterday. Here are the pics.
Where do you pick up prickly pears? Are they a local thing, I have never seen any.

wow that looks like liquid hotness. Papazian's description of his prickly pear mead was enough to make me want to brew it. Someday I hope to give it a go.
Do I understand that that mead was in primary for 5 months? Seems a bit long, does it taste a bit yeasty?

It looks really good. The electric purple has left behind a crystal clear purple/reddish liquid. Hopefully I can get the corker in the next few days.
BTW....I also learned that corks are not the best way to keep out oxygen. I thought corks were superior and it turns out newer technology has pretty much made them more of a tradition than anything.
What newer technology?
