We are trying to control invasive plants on the property during winter months where growth is suppressed by the cold and vegetation is more accessible since it's lacking most leaves and flowers. It's much easier to get a better look at what's going on and identify problem spots. We chopped most of the Blackberry down to prevent new growth and remove the walls of thorns which make it hard to get around out there. The next step will be digging out the thick rhizomes underground which will send out new runners to take advantage of all the now available light. Creeping Buttercup and Reed Canary Grass pose a more difficult challenge because of how much seed stock can remain in the topsoil. It's going to be a losing battle with these two but we are removing 6-8" of topsoil containing these plants and laying down burlap sacks and wood chips to suppress their establishment in the spring from any remaining seed. I was told last year that gardening is 1% planting and 99% weeding and that couldn't be more true. By putting in work now to reduce the presence of invasive weeds, we hope it'll be a bit easier to manage their impending return through spring and summer.

One of my favourites for #WaterbirdWednesday…the unique African Darter (Anhinga rufa), also called the slangvoel ("snakebird" in Afrikaans), because their necks & heads are the only thing above water when they swim…which looks like a snake! 𓆙𓅧 #waterbirds #darter #anhinga #snakebird #wetland #marsh #restorationecology #ornithology #etymology #intakaisland #birds #birding #birdwatching #birdtherapy #birdsofsouthafrica #birdphotography #wildlifephotography #naturephotography (at Intaka Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-chO0TAb9t/?igshid=zzqf68jwhx2j
