Happy Friday, everyone ☁️💙☁️

I took these in the same minute from a train somewhere in Montana. The sky changed so fast.

Pied Harrier

Breeding across eastern Russia, northeastern China, and North Korea, it winters from India and Pakistan down to Southeast Asia and the Philippines, hunting over open wetlands, grasslands, and rice paddies.

Striking black-and-white pattern on males.

Also if you have word like "Grasslands - Short Hills" -- you need to type Grasslands Short Hills - with 2 spaces between Grasslands and Short.

Any unneeded punctuation is effectively just removed, but spaces also must be respected.

Autumn blues at Castor Hanglands NNR where the last few limestone grasslands flowers are still just about hanging on - a scatter of Harebells and singletons of Clustered Bellflower and Devil's-bit Scabious.

1/6 First paper out! Together with @danc-eco.bsky.social, we look at avian habitat use in alpine grasslands of low mountains and find some interesting results potentially due to limited elevational space. We also highlight a species that deserves more attention!🐦⛰️

Alpine grasslands are shrinking as shrubs and forests colonize higher elevations due to changes in climate and land use. Accordingly, many alpine bird species are advancing their distributions upslope...

I never really understood people being upset about the retcon of Cyrodiil's landscape (going from jungle to rolling green hills and grasslands).

It was done in an exceedingly interesting way that enriches the setting more than anything else.

Fun fact: It is an ecoregion of the tropical and subtropical grasslands, savannas, and shrublands biome.

Geranium pratense, also known as the cranesbill, is a perennial herbaceous plant in the cranesbill family (Geraniaceae). The species grows naturally in moist, nutrient-rich grasslands and roadsides and is known for its deeply cut leaves

Almost 25 ha of former sheep pasture near Barnard Castle, Co Durham, is to be restored for wildlife, with new wetlands and grasslands designed to benefit waders and other species:
Former sheep pasture near Barnard Castle to be restored for wildlife
Some 25 ha at Westwick will be transformed into a mosaic of wetland, meadow, grassland and scrub, with the project also aiming to reduce nitrogen pollution reaching protected habitats downstream.

Prairie dogs are more than just little faces popping up from burrows. They’re a vital species that supports grasslands and more than 120 other wildlife species, including endangered black-footed ferrets. Wildlife deserves more than simply being something we can shoot for entertainment.
Coloradans can kill prairie dogs for fun. A wildlife group wants it to stop.
The Colorado Parks and Wildlife commission will consider a petition from the Prairie Dog Coalition that opponents say hampers a “type of recreation.”

Nachusa Grasslands is a spectacular place. I had to cross Clear Creek twice as part of the Clear Creek Knolls Trail. There's something magical about walking the open prairie amidst vast skies without another person in sight for miles as the sun sets on a 75 degree, late-October day
