PHOTO STORY: Canada geese make a stop at the Duck Pond
April 8A few Canada geese made a pit stop at the Duck Pond to greet its occupants and take a splash in the pond. Students quietly studying on the lawn the Duck Pond were briefly interrupted by ruffling feathers and a wholesome gaze from dark and shiny, beady eyes. The geese, showing no fear of the students, walked casually to the shore of the pond where they were startled by a small child who tried to pet them. Canada geese started their migration journeys in February, heading northbound for the summer where they breed according to NPR, and will continue migration into May. Canada goose populations have been increasing in urban areas for over 50 years, partly due to habitat loss. The Duck Pond welcomes geese to relax and bond with the ducks … and students.

PHOTO STORY: Spring brings UNM flora to life across campus
April 7The first couple weeks of Spring have brought the University of New Mexico’s bright flora and fauna to life across campus. Flowers, both natural and planted, have begun to bloom around the Duck Pond, along walkways, and throughout UNM’s most beautiful outdoor study or relaxing spots. Students will find that the large rose bushes outside of the Science and Math Learning Center have developed red, pink and yellow flowers, with many more still preparing to bloom. Tulips have popped up in rows outside of Ortega Hall, and pink and purple flowers have begun to grow in the trees outside of Scholes Hall and the Alumni Chapel. The brightest colors and blooming flowers are yet to come as temperatures continue to rise leading into the peak of the spring season.
