In turn, they are food for the millions of migratory birds, including American kestrel and loggerhead shrikes, who nest in the Intermountain West. - Se están cayendo las hojas, el aire se está enfriando y las calabazas nos están dando sabor y ¡ah!, ¿puedes verlo? – ¡estamos en octubre! Después de otro verano lleno de acción para la conservación, estamos listos para los momentos más lentos que el otoño y el invierno nos traen. Sin embargo, ¡todavía no terminamos!

Touch grass? Nah. Touch DIRT. 🤎 Join us on Friday, October 10th from 9am-3pm to plant willows, flowering plants, and potted aspen trees at a Riverscape Restoration project site along East Canyon Creek near Park City, Utah with our partners at @basinrecreation. These plants will provide valuable shelter and forage for a variety of wildlife that utilize riparian (stream side) habitats. This volunteer opportunity is a fun and safe way to make a difference in nature, connect with local communities, and learn more about Utah’s unique ecosystems. 🦫 Spots are limited — secure your spot at the link in our bio today!
