In the spring, sharp-tailed grouse form mating grounds, or leks, where they congregate to compete for territories and perform mating displays for visiting females. This crowded scene leads to fighting among the males as they attempt to outcompete one another and win the affections of the onlooking females.

Thirty-two deployed Soldiers assigned to various units graduate from the Army’s Sexual Harassment/Assault Response and Prevention Ambassador course at Camp Arifjan, Kuwait, March 22, 2023.
Soldiers attended the two-day training session hosted by the 1st Theater Sustainment Command Operational Command Post SHARP office. The voluntary training is designed to provide junior Soldiers with the education and skills necessary to promote culture change within their formations.
Brig. Gen. Maria Juarez, deputy commanding general of the 1st TSC-OCP, emphasized during her speech that the role of a SHARP Ambassador is important because the graduating Soldiers now have the responsibility to be the eyes and ears for the command team.
“Shadow the silence. Stop the violence,” Juarez announced as the new motto for the SHARP ambassador course, voted by the graduating class and attendees.
It was a delight to find this spring ephemeral in bloom. Most of the hepaticas I find in my area are the Round-lobed variety.

Earlier this January, we had the opportunity of seeing some backyard drama that involved an unlucky mourning dove, a sharp-shinned hawk, and a cooper's hawk.
The sharp-shinned hawk, pictured, scared up a mourning dove; the dove crashed into our window and the sharp-shinned hawk took advantage of the situation, immediately seizing the downed bird. Oddly enough, the hawk sat on its prey for almost an hour before finally tearing off its feathers and feeding.
After about fifteen-twenty minutes of carnage (the kind that repulses you, yet you can't look away), the sharp-shinned hawk suddenly got very wary and alert -- then, out of nowhere, a much-larger cooper's hawk dive bombed the smaller hawk, scaring her off and stealing the half-eaten meal.
The sharp-shinned hawk then sulked in the pine tree outside my bedroom for a good half-hour.
