A lone Juniper, especially out here in foothill Red Rock country, always catches my attention. And if I forget to look up, there’s usually a flock of Robins, or a Townsend’s Solitaire, or a flutter of chickadees and juncos and flickers to remind me. Today, it’s all of them There’s a Christmas tree quality to these trees, sandstone style, ornamented with berries, and sometimes flocked with a morning snow. But as we know, reminded time and time again in nature,  everyday is a gift.
