Fall in New Mexico is the place to be! There is nothing like the smell of roasting green chile, and warm days followed by chilly nights. Waterfowl are migrating, elk are bugling, and the salmon are spawning! Experience fall colors at a New Mexico State Park near you.
Thank you to the staff at the Rio Grande Nature Center State Park for capturing the beginning of fall in the Albuquerque bosque!
Remember fall is also a perfect time to work on defensible space around your home! Start with the 5-foot zone and work your way out to the 100-foot area. Clear debris such as fallen leaves, pine needles, branches, and tall grass. Learn more here https://www.emnrd.nm.gov/sfd/fire-prevention-programs/
