Happy Mystery Monday and Happy Holidays! For our final mystery of the year, we have this! Do you know what this is? Bonus points if you know what creature it belongs to!
Last week, we asked you about the eastern red cedar (Juniperus virginiana)! Eastern red cedar is dioecious, meaning that the male and female are separate plants. Males have yellowish brown flowers, while the females have a lighter blue flower followed by the aromatic blue fruits. Eastern red cedars are excellent plants for wildlife, offering lots of shelter and food!
