The other snowbird: The water is warm and tranquil, perfect for the manatees wintering in Blue Springs Park in Central Florida. During these colder months, visitors can only view manatees from afar—no one is allowed to swim or boat—and the efforts are paying off.

Frozen in time: Archaeologists have retrieved 100,000 artifacts from Nunalleq, in southwestern Alaska. Everything from ivory tattoo needles and a belt of caribou teeth to wooden ritual masks. Most artifacts are well-preserved, having been frozen underground since 1660. Now archaeological sites such as Nunalleq are threatened by climbing temperatures and rising seas. (Pictured above, Yup’ik masks depicting a half-human, half-walrus face, and one from the 19th century resembling an animal with a seal in its jaws.)
