Today we're grateful for hiking, and for the view you get at the top of the mountain, or the end of the trail. And for that wonderful feeling of accomplishment when you get there 🥾

Today we're grateful for biking! For the feeling of the wind blowing in your face as you fly down the trail, and the way you feel the land through the handle bars while you take in the view 🚵

Happy Thanksgiving!

Today we're grateful for the land, and the joy and beauty it brings us.

DYK: Don't tear down empty bird nests in fall; they can still provide shelter for other birds in winter!🪹 They can also contain parasites/disease risky for humans Landlords: wait until late summer/early fall to clean out birdhouses Renters🐦: spaces available for winter!

Experiencing a sense of awe in nature can have a significant positive impact on your mental and emotional health. But this is a picture. Now go out there and see the real thing! 🌄 You’re welcome.

The fields around the BLM's Roswell Field Office are in the holiday spirit with this Desert Holly blooming on BLM land near the Roswell airport. Botanist: It's not uncommon for plants to bloom twice a year, especially with all the rain the area received this year.
