Main Street is lined with tinsel and lights and there was a huge turnout for the annual Christmas parade.\u00a0 There has been no shortage of festivities around our field office either! We\u2019ve had potlucks, chili cook-offs, and a kid\u2019s holiday party here in the office so far. I was lucky enough to score the role of woodsy the owl for the kid\u2019s holiday party\u00a0and let me tell you it&#8217;s not easy being an owl. I was surprised how tough it was to move around\u00a0and see out of one of those costumes! It was all worth it to see the looks on all the little kids faces though (half were horrified &amp; half ran up to give\u00a0me a big hug).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">I have also been pleasantly surprised by how much we\u2019ve still been able to go out into the field. Lately we\u2019ve been mapping invasive saltcedar in an extensive drainage system. \u00a0It is awesome trekking around in a maze of drainages because the abundance of wildlife and strange rock formations; I\u2019ve been stumbling across porcupines, coyotes, deer, and antelope on a daily basis. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_20868\" style=\"width: 236px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/dev-clm-blog.pantheonsite.io\/?attachment_id=20868\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-20868\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20868\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-20868\" src=\"https:\/\/dev-clm-blog.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Picture-226x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"226\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Picture-226x300.jpg 226w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Picture-227x300.jpg 227w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Picture.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 226px) 100vw, 226px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-20868\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Woodsy &amp; Smokey!<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dev-clm-blog.pantheonsite.io\/?attachment_id=20869\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-20869\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-20869\" src=\"https:\/\/dev-clm-blog.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Picture-0131-300x295.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"295\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Picture-0131-300x295.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Picture-0131-304x300.jpg 304w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Picture-0131.jpg 487w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Everyone seems to be getting into the holiday spirit here in Buffalo!
