A bumble bee that uses an acorn as the door to her nest. Watch her come out and shut the door before she grooms herself, and then flies away. These kinds of delights and discoveries could be waiting for you in your backyard or neighborhood. Insects are so cool!

Do you know what that is? It’s future #PrairieStrips, baby! #CRP #CP43

Celebrating High Hammond Bennett’s Birthday!

Entertaining and educational - way to go, guys!

[Iowa Cover Crop @iacovercrop]

IT'S HERE! Our first episode of "Under the Covers" is up for some entertainment. We we sit down with Ryan Albers, Field Sales Agronomist with @LandusCoop, to chat about effective methods of terminating your cover crop before #plant21 https://t.co/9cRZbBUWO5

Cows in my #CoverCrops ... I was already happy about the #CerealRye doing its job (armoring the soil surface, retaining nutrients, feeding our mini underground livestock) this spring, but fresh forage for the cows is a pretty great bonus!

[Anna Mac Go @Viriette]

Thank you to our veterans and their families!

[Anna Mac Go @Viriette]

@JeanEells Bummer that the program doesn’t fit, but I appreciate your remnant stewardship!

I wore this SWCS shirt today in honor of being Tech Volunteer for the #SWCS75 symposia session on USDA Climate Hubs this afternoon! What a great panel! Learned about resources like #GrassCast, AgRisk Viewer, Adaptation Resources for Agriculture workbook & Dust Mitigation Handbook

I love these "Soil Conversation" comics that @SWCSNews has been posting on Facebook for the #SWCS75 Anniversary!

Some of the @prairiestrips folks might enjoy, too: @LSchulteMoore @ISUAgWaterMgmt @VPoorrick

I think we've all got a lot of listening and learning to do to make our world more equitable and safe. Inspired by #BlackBirdersWeek #BlackLivesMatter #PrideMonth and others, I wrote down some thoughts on why I think we ecologists should be out front.

Remembering the sacrifices that have been made... (WWII, Korean War Veterans, and Vietnam Veterans Memorials in Washington, D.C.)

Way to go, SWCS!

At a time when so many things are getting canceled and postponed, hats off to the SWCS staff and conference organizers for finding a way to make this event a (virtual, haha) reality, and giving us something to look forward to in July! #SWCS75

[Soil and Water Conservation Society @SWCSNews]

The Soil and Water Conservation Society is going virtual for its upcoming 75th International Annual Conference. #SWCS75

[Anna Mac Go @Viriette]

The Earth Week Chalk Challenge = good excuse to break out the sidewalk chalk! I drew the #SWCS75 logo, too (because it’s not just #EarthWeek, but timing is also between #HughHammondBennett’s birthday & #SoilAndWaterConservationWeek / #StewardshipWeek!) @SWCSNews
