You shall not pass
While taking a walk between Espinho and Esmoriz this little guy got a little bit defensive.
While it’s looking nice it’s another invasive species. It even made it to Berlin.
Cortaderia selloana
We came to know that, cortaderia selloana, the nice looking grass/reed that can be found everywhere is actually an invasive species.
Because of it’s invasive nature it appears on the website of the Parque Biologico de Gaia that we’ve visited. It’s a nice park with local animals.
All of them needed some kind of support, because they were found injured or abandoned by the parents so I think it’s good they found a new home. My favorite was the costal biorama.
