sagebrush

1 We head on past low, twisty juniper and pinyon trees and clumps of sagebrush clinging to the severe terrain.

2 While that's good for sagebrush ; it's not good for its plant neighbors.

虽然这样对山艾树比较好,但是对邻近的植物造成威胁.

3 I broke days into moments, ignoring the horizon line, focusing on footsteps, pebbles, desert sagebrush or the bumps on a horned lizard’s head.

4 The competition is like a car race in the sky, with planes flying wingtip-to-wingtip as low as 50 feet off the sagebrush at speeds sometimes surpassing 500 mph.

5 Set out from the parking area along a wide trail that cuts through sweet-smelling sagebrush.

6 We arrived 90 minutes later in a snug valley where aspens met sagebrush at the river’s edge.

7 On an Arizona highway, a two-car caravan is flashing across sagebrush country—the mesa country of hawks and rattlesnakes and towering red rocks.

8 Crows flapped off an occasional jackrabbit carcass; a black-and-white shrike sat on a fence post with a dead kangaroo rat dangling from under its talons; cows lumbered moodily off the dirt path into the sagebrush.

9 The deciduous trees of the North Rim are replaced by prickly pear cactus and aromatic sagebrush, providing home to lizards, and hawk moths after dark.

10 I was walking along a trail in Yellowstone National Park, meditating on mountains, breathing in the scent of pine and sagebrush, when a llama sneezed in my ear.

11 Before they could attack, Brian jumped out from behind a clump of sagebrush, waving a yucca branch.

12 Then they disappeared for a while into the sagebrush.

13 They’re framed by sagebrush and, beyond that, desert foothills and the giant sky, contrails crisscrossing its length.

14 Beyond the hazy purple sensation of the Texas Hill Country, the land relaxed, and soon enough, it was just me and the sagebrush and so many wind turbines casting shadows across the highway.

15 The sagebrushes shone with new silver leaves and the oaks wore hoods of golden green.

16 Detailed drives with ratings, distance and maps to the prettiest places in the state, from the best views of mountains and lakes to flower-filled meadows and sagebrush prairies.

17 “So you can see what he saw. Smell the sagebrush and feel the same sand under your feet.”

18 The key species for this count — the sagebrush sparrow, Brewer’s sparrow and sage thrasher — are small, often hidden in low-lying brush, and sometimes hard to spot.

19 One day when Brian and I were hiding in the sagebrush, spying, I double-dared him to go talk to the woman lying out on the porch.

20 Its pages carry the smell of sagebrush and ring of slot machines, and will bring readers deep into its messy beauty.
