The more things change, the more they stay the same. 🌸 Maybe the urge for change is not always rational, indeed you would be better to stay the course as long as it's sustainable. Often old and tired ways of doing things are actually the best alternative. Better days ahead as we head into springtime.

I know it’s an awful bigoted thing to call invasive species, invaders

I know it’s an awful bigoted thing to call invasive species, invaders. It’s not like invasive species plan an invasion of an area. In many cases they don’t seek take over an area, kill native species, cause economic harm or job losses. Instead, they are just looking to survive and reproduce in a suitable habitat. Moreover calling something an invasive species rather than a introduced species is a very political statement – introduced species are defined by humans as being helpful rather than harmful.
