Today was the first photo outing since Jan. 27, 2026--still overcast but at least it wasn't raining! Here's one member of the Bald Eagle couple that we saw, today, at the nest tree we've been watching for the last 2 years.

This is Teddy. Despite his name, he is not actually a teddy bear that has come to life. Just happens to be an exceptionally soft and cute and cuddly little guy. 13/10 (IG: teddytheduke)

TMZ reports receiving an unverified, random note related to the abduction of Nancy Guthrie, asking for ‘millions’ in Bitcoin. Another news station received one as well, and Pima County police are taking the threats seriously.

Today's #SpeciesSpotlight is the Asian Golden Cat!
A cat of many colors, with up to 10 color morphs recorded across its range. It’s also one of our 9 focal species in the Bhutan Wild Cat Health Project, where our camera traps have detected 3 different color morphs so far!

We are urging #Colorado officials to move quickly to halt the sale of furs from native animals. The call comes ahead of a planned annual fur auction on Feb. 4 and 5 in Hugo, CO.
Thousands of pelts from animals labeled as #furbearers have typically been sold at this auction.
