It's National Brrrrrd Day. ❄️

Let’s take a moment to share some gratitude for our feathered friends – they weather a lot. Birds bring beauty to our world and watching them is a great way to connect with nature any time of year! What birds are you hoping to spot in 2024?

What is petrified wood, and why is it so frightened?

Most likely, millions of years ago, a dinosaur, uninvited, approached a gathering of trees. At first, they were afraid. Then they were petrified. All their rings turned to stone inside. But they survived. Yes, they survived.

Grand Canyon’s geologic layers span nearly half of Earth’s history, recording environments from erupting volcanoes to quiet seas.

With elevations ranging from 2,000 to 8,000 feet, the canyon is home to the ecosystems found from Canada to Mexico > https://t.co/wgCBXGjwPA (900)

Fly Geyser is a truly unique and fascinating geological formation. It is believed that the geyser was created accidentally in 1916 when a local rancher was drilling for water.
