You can find cool things in blue vane traps! Nine years ago we found this beautiful #chalcid #wasp Hockeria eriensis, which was a new record for #Canada (as per Halstead 1990). It is a #parasite of larval ant lions, which were somewhat abundant at this sandy #badlands habitat in #Saskatchewan.

A tiny tree, seemingly dead, stands atop a mound of eroding mudstone on a softly sloping plain. Behind it rises a more angled array of mudstone mounds, disappearing above the top of the image. At left is a small hoodoo capped by a dark ironstone rock.

Small scale erosional features in siltstone and mudstone on a slightly sloping desert floor. The variously-shaped mounds and protrusions are differentially weathered and appear to be melting into the base layer. In the background we see the base of a larger formation whose upper sections are out of view.

A marvelously textured arroyo with walls that appear to be melting draws the eye down its center. At above right a twisted tiny dead tree appears perched on a mound, overseeing the ominous clouds looming overhead. In the bottom of the draw a pair of boulders blocks an easy exit.

A wildly sculpted hoodoo rises against a blue, cloud-streaked sky in a desert environment. Its caprock is concave, as if to support a seated individual. Around and behind it in the middle distance are a variety of other extravagantly sculpted rock formations. It is a weird looking place.

A fantasy-like erosional landscape populated by all manner of rock formations, plus a cone-shaped mound at middle right. Wispy white clouds give the sky some texture.

My cousin, Tim Lindenbaum, has taken some breathtaking nature photos, particularly of birds. Since he does not have an account here, he's granted me permission to post them here sometimes. Here is a burrowing owl in flight from Badlands National Park. #owl #owls #badlands #Photography #Birds

This formation is a marine deposit, the uppermost section of the Pierre Shale formation, that was later chemically altered to a bright yellow color.

A huge boulder sits at a tilt on top of a deeply weathered mound of clay or mudstone, which shows a network of cracks. Behind and to the right, on the horizon, rise a number of irregular-shaped hoodoos. The sky is featureless.

A pair of gray mudstone pinnacles rise into the clear blue sky, one showing a sparse remaining cap of reddish ironstone. To their right and below, a pair of red-capped hoodoos stand guard, the nearer of which looks like a platform. In the far left distance an escarpment reaches to the horizon.

This is a sweeping panorama of the "Hanksville Moonscape" (also known as the “Mars-like badlands”) in southern Utah, captured at golden hour.

The image shows an immense, otherworldly desert badlands stretching to the horizon. Deeply eroded sedimentary rock creates a chaotic sea of razor-sharp ridges, narrow gullies, rounded domes, and flat-topped mesas. The terrain looks almost lunar or Martian—hence the nickname “Moonscape.”

The sun is low (sunrise or sunset), bathing the eastern-facing cliffs and buttes in rich, fiery orange and golden light. Long, dramatic shadows stretch across the valleys, emphasizing every crease and layer in the rock. The foreground and lower slopes shift into cooler shades of rust, cinnamon, and slate gray where they fall into shade, while the distant plains fade into soft lavender haze.

A rugged, isolated rock pinnacle (a small butte or hoodoo) sits in the lower right, catching the last warm light on its textured, crumbling surface.
A series of larger, layered mesas and buttes rise like ancient fortresses. Their flat iron-stained caps glow bright orange, while the steeply eroded sides reveal intricate horizontal banding and deep vertical gullies carved by centuries of flash floods and wind.
Beyond the badlands lies a broad, flat valley floor. On the far horizon, a majestic snow-capped mountain range (likely the Henry Mountains or La Sal Mountains) rises in soft blue tones, contrasting sharply with the warm desert tones below.
A clean gradient from pale peach near the horizon to soft lavender and deep blue overhead, with almost no clouds—perfect conditions for that classic Utah “big sky” feel.

This exact viewpoint is a popular pull-off along the road between Hanksville and Goblin Valley / Capitol Reef, often shot from the rim overlooking the San Rafael Desert badlands.

Saw Predator BADLANDS last night. LOADS of fun monsters! If you like monsters, def worth a watch. I also always like Elle Fanning too, who's in it. A bit too fast on the editing for this old fart, but can't not love alien beasty action!

Under a clear blue sky, a disorganized clumping of boulders and siltstone stands at left. In the center, we see a small pine tree. Farther to the right a rather unremarkable hoodoo sits on sloping siltstone ground. Behind, a mudstone peak rises in the distance.
