This showed up randomly on my IG. I have never watched an NCAA track event. But I have to agree with the announcers that both the unique start of this race and the excitement generated by the real-time, school-based rankings make this a truly fantastic event to watch on TV.
Well worth checking out!

Say "Hello" to Olivier The Northern Hawk Owl. Very elusive, he spends most of his time, in the Boreal Forests of the Great White North. One of the most incredible hunters that I have ever witnessed.🦉

Anyone have advice on how to take up naturalism as a hobby? For some strange reason over the last 9 days I have this sudden curiosity about nature. A real desire to learn more about the natural world. To spend less time in society and more time with Mother Earth and her beautiful creatures.

In the Malheur National Forest in Michigan there is a single fungus that stretches nearly four square miles underground with a combined weight of around 35000 tons and an estimated lifespan of around 8500 years. It's the oldest of five humongous funguses within the forest, each genetically distinct.
