In the Company of Plants and Rocks: Winter Tree Following: cottonwood, juniper, willow
http://plantsandrocks.blogspot.com/2015/03/winter-tree-following-cottonwood.html
In the Company of Plants and Rocks. Saturday, March 7, 2015. Winter Tree Following: cottonwood, juniper, willow. Cottonwood twigs collected in January are leafing out – indoors. In the wild, leaves won't appear until late May. It’s time to part with my cottonwood. I was searching for a suitable juniper in the foothills just east of town. They’re common, especially on rockier slopes and in draws. We walked up a small dry draw with a box canyon at the head. Rocky Mountain juniper, Juniperus scopulorum.

In the Company of Plants and Rocks: Welcome to my yard, leafcutter bee!
http://plantsandrocks.blogspot.com/2014/06/welcome-to-my-yard-leafcutter-bee.html
In the Company of Plants and Rocks. Sunday, June 22, 2014. Welcome to my yard, leafcutter bee! Entrance to nest is in the end of the shorter tie. The leaf fragments this bee brought back were larger than the ones I saw last time, and she had to fold them to carry them. From Leafcutter Bees Fact Sheet. Colorado State University Extension. But I think these holes are too small. They may be the work of leafcutter bees, but apparently not the one I was watching. Do you recognize the bee’s leaf? It has serrat...

In the Company of Plants and Rocks. Saturday, February 28, 2015. Plants in the Abstract. There’s a photographic world somewhere between realism and pure abstraction where I love to be.
