Joshua Trees are the stars at California's Joshua Tree National Park, but other trees make a good showing too. This Juniper is a standout that has planted itself firmly in the rocks and is well weathered.

The juniper tree has always been a kind of magical evergreen to me. It's berries can be used to spice meet, make a kind of wild yeast, and provide antioxidants and vitamins.

Another pen and ink sketch as i plan my upcoming story. Flutter standing on a chair so she can wear a huge victorian dress. The sketches may end up being scenes or just a step in the process of imagining the story and world they are in.

500 hundred years of this living being, of this survivor, this wind guardian. El Sabinar in El Hierro island is an amazing place.

 

Older than you and me, the tree met the last indigenous civilization of the island and saw the first Columbus trip to the unknown. Old and beautiful.

 

One of the most beautiful and remote corners of the Planet Earth.

Coming Wednesday April 29th!

I picked a few even though I don't really know what to do with them.

In Washington Park on Fidalgo Island

Summit County, Utah.

Callophrys gryneus. Searight Park in Austin was full of juniper hairstreaks today. This one is nectaring an a small flower on a tree I couldn't identify.

Today's weather is another story - gales and sleet and rain so I think the thaw is at last coming!

We will always miss Juniper. She was a very wild and free spirit. She went missing in 2016- she was 9 years old. I think of her so often. Juniper was one of Holly the 1st kittens.

 

As you can see, Ken & I have had many cats in our lives, and we miss them ALL! I got bogged down looking back through SO many photos, and these are just a few. All loved dearly, and all missed to this day.

 

For Happy Caturday!: In Memory Of

I was so happy to have this lifer bird show up in my yard this winter to feed on black-oil sunflower seeds at my feeders. I have looked for these in the wild and never gotten a photo of one. So when I looked out my window in early November at one of my feeders and saw this cute little bird eating the sunflower seeds I was quite surprised. It has been hanging around ever since.

 

As their name implies, they are usually found in habitats associated with juniper trees or pinion / juniper woodland. I don't have any junipers in my yard and I don't think my neighbors do either.

When people first come to the Desert Southwest, they often comment on how much they like the old, gnarled juniper trees. These trees can inhabit poor quality soil and rocky terrain where other plants will fail. As a slow growing species, they can live for hundreds of years. Here is a shot of an old juniper tree with some of the most colorful light I've ever seen in Zion National Park!

Paria River Valley, Kane County, Utah.

Visit to Grand Canyon south rim was spectacular, but it was made even more interesting with a few lifer bird sightings. Juniper Titmouse!

Log cabin at the community of Juniper, in Idaho along I-84 just north of the Utah state line in Idaho.

Check out the cut marks on the logs.

It is easy to get caught up in the majesty at Zion. However, I love it when the junipers produce their uniquely blue berries, this one found along a trail in the Kolob Canyons, May, 2025. For me, these trees are the soul of the west: www.nps.gov/cany/learn/nature/utahjuniper.htm

 

The frost on the junipers was pretty spectacular!

Go see it, take your time, listen, explore, read, go to the end and then keep going...

It had been below freezing the night before. On the way to the trailhead, the fields around Loa and Bicknell were covered in ice from the irrigation sprinklers.

Junipers (in this case, Juniperus osteosperma), are famously good desert-survivors. They're also notorious contortionists, which may contribute to their long-lived success. They produce berries much enjoyed by the local fauna.

Juniper at the window. I have been doing pen, ink and charcoal sketches for my new virtual artwork and this is one for a character named Juniper. There is a story as to why she never leaves her blanket but I have not built that story yet. She was also in my last work called "Hand" which was supported by the Ontario Arts Council. But here is her poem and perhaps it helps explain.

 

Under a blanket

with holes throughout

nobody sees in

but Juniper looks out

 

she whispers

 

come under with me

and together we'll hide

hold me in the darkness

there'll be no outside

 

where people are cruel

and winters are cold

where I don't fit in

and everything's sold

 

climb inside

we're two hands in a glove

fingers entwined

because you are my love

 

-Bryn Oh

Juniper trees are so unique with their bright blue berries and textured needles. I wanted to do them justice this particular winter sunrise with an intimate portrait.

Aperture was wide open.

 

This juniper tree had been recently felled when I came upon it walking through the woods near Newboro Lake, Ontario. For that reason, its branches lay horizontal and I was able to shoot through them towards the sunlight. The blue bokeh is sky; the orange comes from autumn leaves lit by the afternoon sun.

 

I'm still learning about this lens that I recently bought. I enjoy how it allows me enough depth of field to capture a subject one or two inches deep and still provide wonderful bokeh in the background.

Searching for very old trees at Sedona, I found this living fossil Juniper Tree . In this Ɣrea you can find some real old ones. I was very lucky getting this wonderful light. ( YBSNature21 )

The day was very windy and I loved the motion it created !

I finally got one. This has got to be one of the most drab birds in the birding kingdom but at least I got it. It isn't as pretty as the Oak Titmouse but I still love that cute crest on its head!

During our visit to Colorado and Utah the bristle cone pines and junipers growing in this harsh climate really amazed me. I found their twisted limbs and the texture of the trunk and the branches fascinating. This specimen grows near Grand Junction at the Rim Rock Drive (Colorado National Monument).

 

Did some research and found out it's not a bristle cone pine as I first assumed but a juniper :-)

Scanning through my archive and found this photo which I completely overlooked.

 

I love the twisted, dead juniper trees in this area.

One of the most aesthetic trees in the Vancouver area - at Juniper Point, Lighthouse Park. A heavy shower blew through to reveal a golden patch of late evening sky. The glow of the reflection in the water against the Juniper tree together with the gnarly rocks were delightful.

Juniper, Sandstone Cliff. Ā© Copyright 2012 G Dan Mitchell – all rights reserved.

 

An old juniper tree growing at the base of a sandstone cliff, Capitol Reef National Park.

 

As I recall it now, quite a few years later, this tree stands on a rise at the base of a large section of sandstone cliff in a place where a canyon makes a sharp bend. It is not a particularly remote or obscure spot, but the cliff is remarkable in terms of the late-day lighting and the patterns on the surface of the rock. The lighting was special — and challenging! — because the section of the canyon is aligned such that little direct light gets there. This means that much of the light is either from the very blue sky or reflected from very red cliffs, creating some almost otherworldly color effects.

 

My recollection is also that I found it a little complicated to get the compositions I was looking for here. I remember it as one of those places that is remarkable but which doesn’t necessarily present easy photographs. My archive of raw files supports this — I see a variety of different attempts at the subject, and each of them grappled with issues of juxtaposition and with objects that interfered with the composition. In fact, this version of the scene works because I found a different approach to cropping it that managed to eliminate one of this distractions.
