Urban Nature on Boston's Riverway

cottonmanifesto photographing a beetle on the dodder. Her picture is here.


A Japanese beetle feeding on Japanese knotweed. That's about right.

I went to Hawaii and I'm still not done showing you.

Here's my dad, photographing the vista outside the National Tropical Botanical Garden.

Maggie thinks there's something to bark about.( more dog and some urban nature )

On this day in 365 Urban Species: Dodder, as seen here earlier today! (I totally didn't plan that, and I probably should have.) Alexis has made it her pet project to tear out hunks of dodder and relocate them to patches of Japanese knotweed. So far it's been successful: the transplanted dodder wraps itself around the knotweed in every place she's moved it.
