Here are a few #horsetail plants, seen on my walk #today (yesterday, actually).

Plus a wandering "woolly bear" (#TigerMoth) #caterpillar.

Horsetails are 150 million-year-old living fossils that were eaten by - yes! - Jurassic #dinosaurs.

Also, their unique node spacing inspired #JohnNapier in 1614 to invent #logarithms.

Admittedly, some rude US jurisdictions (wtf Oregon...?) classify them as noxious weeds.

But imho this is an amazing plant with a wonderful résumé 💚
