Callophrys gryneus. These butterflies are very small, about half an inch long. The agarita (Mahonia trifoliolata) grows wild in my yard in south Austin.
I found this strange mutation on a juniper shrub in my backyard. It was about the size of a quarter.
Juniper Dunes Wilderness: The Juniper Dunes Wilderness in Oregon preserves the northernmost growth of western juniper, some of which have been around for 150 years, along with windswept sand dunes measuring 130 feet in height and 1,000 feet in width. Other than junipers, no trees grow in significant numbers here, but many bushes and flowers bloom wondrously come spring, although the mountains that separate western and eastern Washington generally wring the moisture from the air. The landscape here takes quite a battering, in fact, with strong southwest winds to build the dunes, seven to eight inches of precipitation to moisten them, a foot or so of snow that drifts down in winter, and summer temperatures that occasionally rise above 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Elevations range from 750 feet to 1,130 feet above sea level. But plenty of animals thrive despite the extremes: mule deer, bobcats, coyotes, badgers, skunks, weasels, porcupines, pocket gophers, kangaroo rats, several species of mice, hawks, owls, ravens, quail, partridge, pheasants, doves, numerous songbirds, and rattlesnakes.\

Juniperus osteosperma (Utah juniper) Seen near Kachina Bridge
Kachina Bridge Natural Bridges National Monument
Kachina is "the middle bridge." Spanning the canyon equidistant from both Owachomo and Sipapu bridges. It is larger than Owachomo but smaller than Sipapu. Proving that canyons are dynamic rather than static, approximately 4,000 tons of sandstone fell from the inside of the Kachina bridge opening in June, 1992, enlarging the opening as it has doubtless been enlarged time and time again.

The Juniper Titmouse (Baeolophus griseus) is a tiny bird which forages for insects among the branches of the Juniper and Oaks of the California foothills. Constantly on the move and secretive, he is very difficult to photograph. This photo was taken in Jawbone Canyon on November 17, 2009 in Kern County, California, US, using a Sony DSC-H5 digital Camera

We have planted Buffalo Junipers. I'm excited to see them after they really start to grow out~word is they look pretty nice and stay low down to provide ground cover.

Shelly gave me a single skein of yarn and this is what I came up with. A pair of quick and fun fingerless mitts I've named Juniper because the spiraling rib reminds me of a Juniper topiary!
Pattern available here.
These little green jewels always thrill me. Love their color and complexity. The tails are actualy a defensive ploy. They simulate antenenna and along with the eye spots fool predators who attack the tail thinking it is the head. Many butterfly escape with their lives but with a piece of thier hind wing missing.

Project tree 5-3-10 Just chopped this tree, and took 1/3 of the roots away , re-potted it in a training pot, ill give it a month or 2 to catch hold and I think im going to try my hand at carving this trunk a bit. Im actually considering shortening it some when im sure the exsisting new foliage makes it throuch the chop and repot.
Juniper is a loving girl who enjoys the outdoors most of all. I took her name from the song "Jennifer Juniper", by Donovan.
The last verse repeats verse one in french, and that is the inscription on the back of Juniper's head. "Qu'est-ce que tu fais, mon amour?" Juniper is always interested in you and loves to spend time together!
Juniper is happibug custom #175. She is an ebl mold dolly, originally a Disco Boogie, and has an adorable angled bob and pointed bangs cut into her two toned hair. Juniper has airbrushed make-up with handpainted details, and three pairs of my handpainted custom chips. Juniper's outfit is made by me, and consists of a dress of turquoise silk with embroidery and beads, and a 70's leather bag and belt. Coolcat boots in chamois finish off her outfit!
