Daily Postcard: American Pika Spotted At Bandelier
Daily Postcard: Bandelier National Monument provides excellent insights into how mountain-dwelling species may fare amidst ongoing global change such as this American Pika spotted Tuesday. Despite their cuddly appearance, American pikas—the smallest members of the lagomorph group—are among North America’s toughest animals. Pikas are one of the few mammals in the lower 48 states that can survive their entire lives in alpine terrain, the windswept no-man’s-land above tree line. Source: nwf.org. Courtesy/BNM

Moving Arts Española Celebrates 15 Years
Joycelyn Schroulote, a student at the New Mexico School of the Arts said, ‘Moving Arts Española has always been a safe space for me. Growing up, I was such a shy and introverted kid, always felt unseen and unheard, but Moving Arts saw me. They taught me how to use my voice. Now I am unafraid to speak up for people and help them find their voices.’ Schroulote is currently participating in the Moving Arts STAC program which stands for the Spaña Teen Art Collective. This group is focused on creating programs for teens by teens and intends on hosting an art walk in April 2023. Photo by Nicholas King Read More

Daily Postcard: ‘Morning Rainbow’ Spotted In Eastern Area
Daily Postcard: A rare ‘morning rainbow’ spotted Saturday morning looking west from the Eastern Area. Rain and or snow was being blown west away from the mountains, enough to form a rainbow. Most of the Jemez was buried in clouds, but one can see a few of the foothills below the rainbow. Only 5% of rainbows form in the morning, mostly due to the few rainstorms at that time.
