This is the last available Cottonwood on our property.
Juniper in the bosque about a half mile north of our property.
Big, old classic Cottonwood about a mile north of our property. It is great in sunsets, but I don’t make it up that far very often in the wintertime.
Young cottonwood on the way to Beaver Point. It has a good shape, and can be photographed from multiple angles to include the Sandias to the east and sunsets to the west.
Classic Cottonwood between the irrigation ditch and clearwater ditch about 300 feet north of our property. Can be photographed from multiple sides and looks great in sunsets.
This Cottonwood is between the irrigation ditch and clearwater ditch east of our property. You can see Teagan’s trees on the southern edge of our property to the left in the background. Good multiple views and sunset photos.
Fruit trees on the property. The first photo is the peach tree with the 5 on 1 plum tree on the right. Then second photo (top right) shows the nectarine behind the peach tree, and 5 on 1 plum tree. The third photo (bottom right) shows the cherry tree in the foreground, one of the apple trees on the right, the nectarine tree behind in the center and the peach tree on the left.
Love the generosity with the trees and images of them in various conditions. 🙂
Thanks, Susan. Christine is a connoisseur of sunsets, so I wanted to show sunset views where available.
They are beautiful!
You speak with authority when you mention their beauty. You know the bosque and trees personally.
Gorgeous trees and skies, Tim! I so enjoy looking at trees so these pictures are a real treat!
Thanks, Leah.
Oh my! I love all the fruit trees! But nectarine just sounds so interesting!
You can have the nectarine, and if you want to change trees later, that’s always an option.
They are all beautiful through your lens, Tim. You live in a magical place!
Thanks, Lavinia. There is a lot of magic here.
Excellent and beautiful work !
Thanks, Inge.
I miss all the trees that were around us until the old farmers sold out and new home builders moved in.
Old McDonald lost his farm and you lose the trees. That’s sad.
Old McDonald got thrown a ton of cash for the land and retired. I miss the hawks who used to sit in the trees.
Fruit trees????!!!
My mouth waters at the thought. You are so lucky to have that. I just have bananas and mangoes only. Thinking to sneak one in before the husband gets back in March.
Hi Kavita. Our trees end up as plain old trees a lot of the time because the blossoms get frozen most years and we don’t get fruit. But once every few years the blossoms manage to survive and the we get a lot of fruit.
Fruit then all the more sweeter. 😊
The natural world surrounding you is spectacular, Tim! Those sunsets are amazing. It must be relaxing to walk the property and see all the wildlife activities happening around you? Beautiful!
Thanks, Holly. It’s nice to live where we can get out with nature by stepping out the door.
I looked up cottonwoods online, inspired by these pictures. I don’t think we have them in Lancashire, although I can’t claim to know all our trees.
Hi Susan. I would be surprised if there are cottonwoods in England. They are interesting trees.
Wow! The fruit trees look like dry fire coming out of the earth, at this time of the year.
They are gorgeous. Of course I’ll never give up my Cottonwood!
Thanks, Resa. They do look stark but fiery.
Tim, so sorry I missed this post. Usually that doesn’t happen . I love the Juniper in the bosque. Looking at it again, even more. It has a stately look, full and strong. I’m not sure, but I think it must have a woodsy, fresh smell. Thank you so much for letting me know I could choose a tree in your other post. I think it’s still available after reading comments. Have a wonderful weekend. 📚🎶 Christine
Hi Christine. Gloria claimed the blue spruce. If you want the Juniper it’s yours.
Yay! The Juniper is all mine. I love it even more than the blue spruce. Look at it’s meaning! 🥳 It certainly fits me. Thank you again. 📚🎶 Christine
Overview of the Juniper Tree—
Most commonly, these berries are connected to good health and healing. They have also variously been linked with animals, aphrodisiacs, fertility, fortune, secrets, love, protection and strength. However, there is more powerful symbolism found within the Juniper tree.
Perfect. It has so much symbolism that is perfect for you.
Especially the healing and protection for a nurse practitioner, although I’m retired from actual practice, it’s still prominent in my life. 📚🎶 Christine
Juniper is rare in the bosque. There are large areas of New Mexico that are piñon juniper woodlands, which are commonly high plains and foothills.
Thanks, Tim. I just looked up piñon Juniper woodlands. Very interesting read. So glad my tree is a Juniper. 🥳🎶🎉 Christine
The colors are so rich. The trees are beautiful.
Thanks, Robert.
