"I'll just be over here supplying clean water, protecting everyone from storms, and being amazing." - a wetland Did you know wetlands are home to over one-third of America’s threatened and endangered species? It's true, and their importance is immeasurable! #ESA50

Don’t feel bad for this big guy. He was built for this. Bison aren't the only species with adaptations to withstand winter's wrath. Discover how some wildlife can weather the cold: fws.gov/story/weatheri… Photo at Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge by Peter Ismert

It’s #FossilFriday! Let’s swim back in time some 85 million years ago to the Late Cretaceous to meet Xiphactinus, a gigantic predatory fish. This species, which could reach lengths of 17 feet (5.2 meters), was capable of swallowing a 6-foot- (2-meter-) fish whole!

The Lunar New Year is here, and 2023 is the Year of the Rabbit! 🐇 Did you know that rabbit ears aren't just for listening, but that they also assist in thermoregulation? With a network of blood vessels that swell & contract, they help rabbits cool down and keep warm.

Healthy wildlife communities include plenty of spiders, which help keep populations of insects in balance, insects like mosquitoes. Thanks spiders, we appreciate you. Photos: John Magera/USFWS at Attwater Prairie Chicken National Wildlife Refuge in TX

Be safe out on the water: Life jackets on, all the time! Don’t just bring one, wear one. In Minnesota, 90 percent of boating fatality victims are not wearing a life jacket. mndnr.gov/boatingsafety #BoatingSafety

I've loved watching these little eagles grow into their wings and begin their journey. It's incredible to see them leave the nest. Huge thanks to Paul Kolnik and the @USFWSNCTC Eagle Cam for giving us all a window to see them take flight.

Have you been hiking at Stagecoach Prairie recently? Just a few weeks after we conducted a prescribed burn on the front 40 acres, this is the green scene that now greets visitors. #stagecoach" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">belwin.org/visit/#stageco

As baby birds learn to fly, they sometimes fall to the ground. If you find one, leave it be! We found this cliff swallow fledgling resting for awhile before it flew away. Most "abandoned” baby birds are actually healthy and will recover in time. allaboutbirds.org/news/i-found-a…

Great news! Members of the @Audubon_MN Saint Paul Conservation Committee found five kestrel chicks in one of two nesting boxes at Belwin. The kestrels are nearly ready to fledge. Thanks to the committee members for their hard work to document North America's littlest falcon!
