Folklore's Green Man has long fascinated me, as a gardener/landscape architect, but also since I read a book connecting him to Santa Claus (??)

This story was my chance to write about the Green Man and coyotes, in a race between invasive and native plants.

Plus coyotes as icons of resilience

"In the fullness of time, the proliferation of #BCI technology throughout society is inevitable. What remains far from settled, however, is whether the prevailing approach to BCI will be non-invasive, or invasive, or some combination." #noninvasive or #invasive, that's the question.

"Our modelling estimates the clams are forming up to 30 tonnes of calcium carbonate daily in Lake Karฤpiro alone.
[...]
The result? Impaired arsenic removal. Without stable calcium, flocs (clumps of particles) donโ€™t form properly, letting arsenic slip through."

Puget Sound has crabs.

An invasive species of European green crabs, โ€œone of the worldโ€™s most harmful marine species,โ€ has been detected in the Salish Sea. They โ€œdamage bed sediments, leading to the loss of eelgrass, an essential habitat for Dungeness crab and Pacific salmon.โ€

The Tulalip Tribes reported โ€œdetection of a green crab in the southern Whidbey Basin at Mission Beachโ€ earlier this year.

Get outta here, crabbies!

And definitely not celebrating a #whitewashed #genocide by invasive, #religious whackadoodles ๐Ÿ˜

Did you know Pampas Grass is #invasive on the East Coast of the US? (And probably the whole country.) It is. But itโ€™s also quite stunning when the light catches it right.

Witch hazel is an ideal addition to Takoma yards

Birds, bees, caterpillars and small mammals all benefit when homeowners replace #invasive shrubs such as bush honeysuckle with our #native witch hazel. Learn more about American witch hazels in this blog post from the Friends of Native Trees in Takoma (FONTT).

So dump the nasty and invasive bush honeysuckle and opt for witch hazel instead! #NativePlants #Pollinators

Recent weather conditions in the coastal areas of Redwood National and State Parks have included rain, fog, wind, and more. Yesterday turned out to be a beautiful day to do a little beach cleanup, as the sun was out and the wind was low. This image shows a wide expanse of sandy beach with a tree-lined slope filling the horizon. Erosion resistant rocks form interesting points in this particular location (center and center left). The viewer can also see the presence of non-native plants in this setting, including several sunlit sections of pampas grass on the center right. Pacific Ocean waves appear on the left. The blue sky above holds a variety of clouds.

Went for a ride on the Mississippi river parkway in to check out the fall foliage. Looks good if you can ignore all the along the trail.

Photograph showing the fall colors in the trees across the Mississippi river. In the foreground is my bike saddle and handlebars. The leaves are a mix of green, yellow and red.
