This multiflora rose is considered an invasive species. It is growing along our fence in a wooded area owned by the county. The thorns are small and sharp, the foliage is thick, but the blooms are pretty.

My FB post today referenced the words of Thomas Paine: "...in America the law is king..." along with my photo and a link to the NPS Minute Man NP site: www.nps.gov/mima/learn/h... However, the link times out from Facebook although it works correctly outside the app. I wonder why?

Thanks @pia-lemonade.bsky.social & @sotachetan.bsky.social for another fun music challenge. I’ve discovered music that was unknown to me before. Thanks, everyone! (This was not my pick today but something I found along the way in researching covers.) The things we learn!
