July 2023 – Ranger Ramblings

Beulah School of Natural Sciences (BSNS) recently kicked off the school year with their first visit to the Pueblo Mountain Park!

Turkey vultures—gross but loveable creatures—have returned from their annual migration south for the winter!

Often wheel-like or cylindrical “snowballs” are formed naturally as chunks of snow roll down hill picking up further snow along the way.

Recent snowfall had provided a surge of moisture for the moss to absorb, leaving the north-facing wall of the canyon lush and green.

This fall, our Earth Studies students got to see incredible biodiversity firsthand on their first trip of the year to visit us!

While many aspects of nature slow down in the colder months, we can still observe the many creatures that are still out and about.
