Of course there were a few general scenery photos. We saw a heron at one of the ponds but were not anywhere near close enough to get a worthwhile photo and I wasn&#8217;t carrying my new, long lens. I got some photos of non-native and invasive plants, as well. These included the dreaded mile-a-minute vine (<em>Persicaria perfoliata<\/em>), Japanese barberry (<em>Berberis thunbergii<\/em>), which is found throughout our woods, and porcelain berry (<em>Ampelopsis glandulosa var. brevipedunculata<\/em>), an Asian vine in the same family as the grape. The milkweed pods in this photo, probably (<em>Asclepias syriaca<\/em>), were really nice, though, so I thought I&#8217;d go with them for the walk&#8217;s featured photo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We took a nice walk in Redgate Park today.
