For the last #RoseWednesday of the year: You’re My Everything’, Rose of the Year 2025. A bright, frosty morning here on the south coast - so much nicer than rain! Have a good day everyone, keep warm, take care, stay safe. #newyearseve #roses 🌱

The great thing about iNaturalist is that when you are in a strange city for the holidays and social batteries are depleted, it can tell you where to go to recharge. Desmognathus fuscus, northern dusky salamander, Williamsburg, VA. #herps 1 of 3
