Happy #LunarNewYear! 🏮 2026 is the Year of the Horse, but at Ridgefield NWR, we celebrate ALL our work horses. From summer cowboys managing cattle to engineering beavers, and mason bees, it takes a village (and a herd) to keep these wetlands thriving. (Note: Beaver clip isn't here)

Happy #InternationalDayofForests! 🌲 While these Killdeer are busy with wetland drama, their habitat is protected by our forested watersheds.💧 Celebrating the 2026 theme "Forests and Economies" by honoring the green infrastructure that keeps our Refuge thriving! 🦅✨ #RidgefieldNWR #Nature #Wildlife

When science meets art: Marek Stanton, student designer of OR’s bee license plate, met our own Anne Bulger 🦅🎨 After a hawk landed in her garage, she commissioned Marek to paint the moment. The result is a stunning tribute to the presence of our local wildlife! 🌿 #WildlifeArt #RidgefieldNWR

As November fades, a new season unfolds at the Refuge. Winter brings quiet beauty, misty mornings, resting flocks of migratory birds, & the peaceful rhythm of the wetlands at rest. Stay tuned for December updates, membership opportunities & ways to celebrate the Refuge all year. Like #GivingTuesday!

Caught some nosy neighbors on the Ridgefield NWR Auto Tour! 🦦Otter mating season starts soon (Dec-April), but here's the cool part: They use delayed implantation to hold off on giving birth until next spring when conditions are right. Nature is brilliant! #RidgefieldNWR #RiverOtters #WildlifeFact

Wrapping up Volunteer Appreciation Week! We’ve been busy setting up the new Community Nature Center, managing spring growth, & hosting the 1st field trips in the new space.

🔊 Sound on! Sandhill Cranes are sensitive to rising water. They love shallow mud for probing for food but seek deep water at night for safety. 🦢🕯️ As the Refuge gets wetter, many head north to the fields in Woodland. Catch them while you can! ✨ #SandhillCranes #RidgefieldNWR #Nature

Dec 2, community comes together to build a place where children explore, families connect, & future stewards discover a love for nature. Help deepen how people experience the Refuge. With your support, wonder can take root. Make an Early Gift: ridgefieldfriends.org/volunteer-su... #GivingTuesday

Ever wonder why a simple noise dispute can cost you $100,000? The legal system is a pay-to-win game where the richest person takes all. See why the law is no longer about finding the truth, but just a costly game of who puts on the best show.
