Daily Postcard: Oxeye Daisy Spotted On East Fork Trail
Daily Postcard: Oxeye Daisy spotted July 7 along the East Fork Trail not far from the Las Conchas Trailhead in the Jemez. There are still a few oxeye daisies present, but not nearly the numbers as before the Santa Fe National Forest treated the trail for this non-native invasive species last August (link). Oxeye daisy is an aggressive invasive species. Once established, it can spread rapidly by means of roots and seeds into undisturbed meadows, woodlands, and riparian areas. It forms dense stands that tend to displace native vegetation, especially wildflowers. Source: National Park Service. Read More

Daily Postcard: Bolts Of Lightning Above Overlook Park
Daily Postcard: Bolts of lightning crackle in the sky during the rainstorm Thursday night above Overlook Park in White Rock. It takes about 5 seconds for the sound of thunder to travel a mile. So, when you count the number of seconds between seeing a crack of lightning and hearing the thunder, divide that number by 5 and that is how many miles away the lightning was when it struck.
