Wow! Look it this flower showing off! 🤩

This is Showy milkweed (Asclepias speciosa). It thrives in clay, loam and sand with full sun. It supports a variety of pollinators from monarchs to hummingbirds and much more!

We have a bunch of them on the Purgatoire River Preserve! Maybe that's why we've been seeing so many monarchs there...👀

You've got questions, we've got answers! Join our next webinar on September 3rd!

For example: How do we prevent plague outbreaks on prairie dog colonies? Have we monitored fish species and population distributions? How can we help beavers get established on the prairie? How do you maximize the survival rates of newly released black-footed ferrets?

This is your moment to ask a question to our Southern Plains Land Trust Conservation Director Kieran Andreoni.

Webinar Date and Time: September 3rd, 7pm - 8:30pm (Mountain Time)

Any clue what this terrifying creature is? 😲

The tarantula hawk is a large wasp known for having one of the most painful insect stings in the world. The intense, blinding pain hits instantly like a taser or a lightning bolt, but it is temporary and non-lethal to humans...

Have you ever been stung by one?

Look at all those happy shiny faces!
Last week, SPLT Executive Director Henry Po***ck spent a day with a dear friend of SPLT, and Professor at Western Colorado University, Dr. Pat Magee! Henry took Pat's "Colorado Ecoregions" class for a spin around Heartland to talk about prairie ecology and the importance of SPLT's land acquisition and rewilding efforts. It is such a pleasure to meet so many passionate young people who care about the prairie!! P.S. - don't you kind of wish YOU could have taken this class in college?!?
