The four largest active wildfires in New Mexico all continued to grow Thursday and have burned a total of more than 476,000 acres. Red Flag Warnings are in effect Friday for winds gusting from 30 to 40 mph with single digit humidity.  I had to apply for flight permission for the 1st location

wow.   Nicely captured SgtRay

The seen is horrible ..
Very Sad to see how the fire takes over huge land and ppl living near by.
And how the birds , deers and bears can survive.
Am sure you share me the same feeling James

Hi, SgtRay. We really appreciate you for sharing this amazing video that you captured. It's so heartbroken to see the fire around the area hope this will be sorted out soon to save more lives, especially on animals living there. Thank you for your valued support.

Very sad to see SgtRay.  However, you did a great job of documenting this catastrophic event.  

Very sad, didn't this start as a controlled burn that got out of hand?

Thank you all.
I don't know how it started.

What a dreadful ecological disaster. Nicely documented.

Sad to see, but nicely captured!
