Today is #WildlifeWednesday, so where is the wildlife in this photo?⁠

It’s #NationalTriviaDay right as we’re in the thick of winter. For our trivia fans, let’s take a look at some #NoxiousWeeds that grow in rosettes or unique circular plant shapes. Rosettes are developing right now and many will start bolting by early spring, which is only a few months away! Can you identify any of the rosettes pictured here?

Did you make a New Year’s resolution to get outside more this year? Are you taking any extra passengers with you?⁠

Earlier this month students and adults from the Bridge School and Explorer West put in ~110 native plants along Seola Pond, a King County Stormwater Section Facility. This event was part of a larger effort led by volunteer Scott Dolfay and other neighbors that has been ongoing since 2017. Swipe through the pictures above to see some of the work through the years!
