On Sept. 29, tractors make their way through the Fermilab campus.

Eastern bluebird hitches a ride

A wind-ruffled bluebird perches on a car mirror and looks directly at the camera.

In September, this bluebird may be tweeting for a Lyft on the Fermilab campus.

Watch the birdie

In spring, bison roam the Fermilab campus.

Oh deer

Three deer in a field of green grass with tan grass behind them. Behind that, trees, picnic benches and water.

In June, deer pass by cemetery on Site 38.

Finding the field mice

In a swath of green grass, a gray coyote stands, ears perked. Behind it, a large orange and black tractor/riding mower and a blue, red and white building. To the left, the grass is taller.

In June 2021, a coyote looks for mice in the new-mown field near RCPF Site 38 on the Fermilab campus.

Bison family

Three adult bison graze on grass. Two calves flank them, also grazing. Two more calves to the right of the herd lie in the grass. Behind them, fence posts, metal fencing, trees and some buildings.

On May 14, 2021, a group from the bison herd, including some of its newest members, graze on the Fermilab campus.
