Limber pine is very common in the Big Snowy Mountains especially on the exposed rocky ridges. It is also sporadic among the dense stands of Engelmann spruce (Picea engelmannii) and Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii). Whitebark pine (Pinus albicaulis) was not found in the area of the Big Snowy Mountains. Limber pine was genetically identified here using chloroplast DNA markers.
According to the Atlas of Breeding Birds of Alberta, Pine Siskins are abundant in general around the province. In the summer they are the most common bird seen in Banff and Jasper National Parks. They are considered a nomadic and irruptive species so they may be common in an area one year and gone the next.
We haven't been seeing many of these here this winter until now. The trails south of Hawrelak Park here seem to be full of them. This one was captured at the feeders in Hawrelak Park.
Pine Pine Siskins are quite” tame" around humans, but can be really aggressive with other birds around feeding stations. Their natural foods include the seeds of conifers as well as deciduous tree seeds such as Birch and Alder and several weed species. They also eat insects and their larvae.
Also included in this set are some other Hawrelak Park feeder regulars.
The two squirrel portraits are a comparison to show the effect of the Better Beamer flash extension I have been playing with. The first shot was taken with the flash with beamer. The second shot was without flash.
I think the flash and beamer brought out more colour and detail. I didn't do any post processing on these shots at all except for re-sizing. The beamer put a second catch light on the eye in the first shot.

Pinus mugo subsp. uncinata, auch Spirke, Hakenkiefer oder Aufrechte Bergkiefer genannt.
Von manchen Botanikern (besonders auf Island) wird sie als eine eigene Art Pinus uncinata DC. angesehen.
Die Spirke wächst baumförmig und erreicht Wuchshöhen bis zu 25 Metern.
Bergfura (Pinus uncinata) er sígrænt, hægvaxta, ein- eða margstofna tré með breiðkeilulaga krónu. Tegundin er upprunin í Pýreneafjöllunum og myndar þar hæstu skógarmörk, allt upp í 2.700 metra hæð. Hún á sér langa ræktunarsögu hérlendis og eru elstu reitirnir á Grund í Eyjafirði og Þingvöllum gróðursettir á árunum 1899-1913.
Mjög harðgert, sígrænt tré. Hæð fullvaxta trjáa mjög misjöfn enda trúlega oft blönduð fjallafuru (Pinus mugo) sem er runni en ekki tré. Nálar fremur langar, dökkgrænar – blágrænar, tvær saman í búnti. Nálar bergfuru eru lengri og dekkri samanborið við nálar stafafuru (Pinus contorta). Brum bergfuru er þykkt og ljóst enda þakið harpixi. Brum stafafuru er rauðbrúnt og mjórra og ekki þakið harpixi. Könglar eru tvílitir, dekkri á jöðrum köngulhreisturs og minna á köngla fjallafuru en eru enn ljósari (sjá mynd). Bergfurukönglar eru kúptir að neðan en ekki sléttir eins og könglar fjallafuru. Könglar stafafuru eru aftur á móti einlitir, kanelbrúnir. Bergfura er nægjusöm en ljóselsk. Getur farið mjög illa af völdum brum- og greinaþurrkssvepps (Gremmeniella abietina). Til að koma í veg fyrir að sveppurinn nái sér á strik er mikilvægt að bergfura standi aldrei þétt heldur að það lofti vel um hana frá öllum hliðum. Bergfura er mest gróðursett stakstæð í görðum. Einnig gróðursett í rýrt mólendi, skriður og þess háttar. Með allra harðgerðustu trjám sem völ er á. Fremur hægvaxta. Heimkynni: Pýreneafjöll og V-Alparnir. Háfjallategund sem vex þar aðallega í 1000 – 2300 m.h.y.s. Finnst einnig lægra í frostpollum og barnamosamýrum. Þar sem útbreiðslusvæði berg- og fjallafuru skarast myndast gjarnan blendingar (Pinus x rotundata). Þessi blendingur virðist algengur hérlendis sem lýsir sér í fremur lágvöxnum, margstofna trjám eða stórum runnum upp á 4 – 7 m. Bergfura er stundum skilgreind sem undirtegund fjallafuru, Pinus mugo subsp. uncinata.
Pinus sylvestris (en. Pine, fi. Mänty, sv. Tall, no. Furu, ps. Beahci). Erkylä, Hausjärvi. 28.3.2014.
Whitebark pine is common but patchy in occurrence in this area with much variation in the distribution of age-classes (young, middle-aged, and dead and dying comprise most populations) and no (or at least not much in the way of) signs of disease (e.g., blister rust and animal predation of oozing bark). This site lies just north of Pinchot Pass in the the Lake Marjorie basin, Sierra Nevada, Fresno County, California.
Zone: 5-9
Height: 6ft .tall and 4ft. wide
This variegated selection of the beautiful Himalayan Pine has the same long, thin needles as the species, but with bands of yellow that create a bright effect both close up and viewed from afar.

Pinus palustris Also known as the Longleaf Pine, a native species to the south eastern United States. The Longleaf Pine is a diverse ecosystem that is also resistant to fire, which makes it a fire climax ecosystem. The current ecological process shown are the photosynthetic process of in taking CO2 and releasing oxygen. The other ecological process is the start if the reproduction system. Since spring has sprung the pine tree has sprouted the male strobili for flowering and start the reproduction between the male strobili and female strobili(pine cone).
On the way to the Col de Bavella (Bavella pass, 1318m), you can enjoy the stunning scenery of the Alta Rocca mountains (Corsica).
Pinus laricio (Pinus nigra subspecies) is one of Corsica emblems.
I loved the look of the wet bark + lichens on the north facing side of this pine tree.

History
The John Rogers who bought Riverhill in 1840 was an only child, with a modest fortune, and a fine intellect. He became a classics scholar, a scientist and a friend of Charles Darwin. He was one of the first members of the Royal Horticultural Society and a patron of the plant collectors of the day.
He chose Riverhill because its sheltered situation offered an ideal lime free hillside where he could hope to establish newly introduced trees and shrubs. From his garden notebook, it can be seen that planting started in 1842. Subsequent generations, continued the planting and in 1910 Colonel John Middleton Rogers created what is now known as ‘The Wood Garden’ a fine collection of Japanese Maples, Rhododendrons and Azaleas. His wife, the infamous Muriel, created many additions including the now hidden Rock Gardens.
Until the beginning of the 2nd World War, eight full time gardeners kept Riverhill looking immaculate. Since the war years, however, a shortage of manpower and a lack of money has meant that the garden was allowed to deteriorate, with many parts of the original planting lost to everyday use and visitors.
Today, four generations of the Rogers family live at Riverhill,
The estate is managed by Edward Rogers (Great-great-great-grandson of the John Rogers who bought Riverhill in 1840) and his wife, Sarah.
