Red Cedar (Juniperus virginiana) growing on a thin layer of glaciated sandy loam, Gibraltar Rock State Natural Area, Ice Age National Scenic Trail, Lodi, WI, 11 October 2014

Together with the wild grasses and the salt spray roses, the Eastern Juniper (Eastern Red Cedar) is a common sight along the low dunes that line the beach near the Waquoit Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve. This one had a bumper crop of juniper berries, which seem to glow in the late afternoon sun.
Press L to view large on black.
(Fourth in a series of four) I have been hearing or seeing flocks of from 20 to 70 Cedar Waxwings fairly regularly in my neighborhood recently.
On a morning walk at Lake Shenandoah, I was fortunate to have a large group flying into one of the lakeside cedar trees where I had a good chance to watch them feeding.
The birds were often hovering or really reaching to grab the small blue waxy cones of the cedar or juniper tree.
The birds all left at once. I suspect they spotted a hawk.

In the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge in Comanche County, Oklahoma, on February 16th, 2023, a view from a roadside overlook on Mount Scott Road.
The distant hills on the horizon are known locally as the Slick Hills.
The evergreens are eastern redcedar, Juniperus virginiana.
The foreground rocks are Mount Scott Granite, part of the Wichita Granite Group, which was formed 533.24 to 515.6334 million years ago (per Macrostrat), in the Cambrian period.

(Second in a series of four) This bird has orange tips on the tips of its tail feathers rather than yellow tips. This is evidently caused by diet. In some of my photos of this bird, the orange had a more yellow-orange glow in full sun, but was a strong orange in the shade.

November 19, 2011, Lake Shenandoah, Rockingham County, Virginia.
Old symbol of infertility.
Aka: (Juniperus virginiana) Eastern Red-cedar, Red Cedar, Eastern Juniper, Red Juniper and Pencil Cedar
Considered a "pioneer" invader that quickly repopulates deforested areas. (although It isn't its fault that humans clear cut the great forests and gave them a perfect home!). They can live to about 900 years old.
Fragrant and cedar-like, although they are truly junipers NOT cedars. They have scaly bark and small needles and produce cones and berries that birds love and spread widely.
Droplets of water form on these Juniper Berries as fog rolled in.
Known as Juniperus virginiana, Eastern Red-cedar, Red Cedar, Eastern Juniper, Red Juniper, and Pencil Cedar.
Juniperus virginiana - The berries, which are used to flavor gin, are actually modified cones. These pale blue berries were on a Juniper tree in Carmel,NY. 6-17-08
This is a male Juniperus virginiana (Eastern Red-cedar, Red Cedar, Eastern Juniper, Red Juniper), a species of juniper native to eastern North America; Garland, Texas

This fragrant and colorful wood is used in making chests, closet liners, pencils and wood chips to repel moths and other insects. The berries also have some medicinal uses.
Online I couldn't find any information about when the concrete dam was built, but we can be nearly certain it's from the 20th century, right?
Meanwhile the granite is from 500+ million years ago, much older than the concrete.
-----------------------
In the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge in Comanche County, Oklahoma, on February 15th, 2023, the dam of Burford Lake on Panther Creek, as viewed from the end of the Burford Lake Trail.
Panther Creek flows to West Cache Creek, which joins East Cache Creek to form Cache Creek, which flows to the Red River, which historically flowed to the Mississippi River, but now flows to the Atchafalaya River, which flows to the Gulf of Mexico.
The granite is Quanah Granite of the Wichita Granite Group, which was formed 533.24 to 515.6334 million years ago (per Macrostrat), in the Cambrian period.

Post Oak Creek flows to West Cache Creek, which flows to Cache Creek, which flows to the Red River, which historically flowed to the Mississippi River, but now flows to the Atchafalaya River, which flows to the Gulf of Mexico.
The outcrops are Quanah Granite, part of the Wichita Granite Group, which was formed 533.24 to 515.6334 million years ago (per Macrostrat), in the Cambrian period, during a failed attempt at a continental rift on prehistoric continent Laurentia.
