Tabbi, Becca and I went out today to look for thistles for the Outdoor Challenge. We found some, but they were pretty far gone already. We did however get to pull what was left of the flowers apart and see the fluff.
We also found some Milkweed pods that were split open. The seeds were spilling out and the wind was taking them away. So silky, the girls liked the feel of the soft fluff.
Love the last image in your entry....you can really see the softness of the seeds. I really enjoyed seeing your outdoor time and thank you for submitting this to the OHC Carnival.
ReplyDeleteLovely :-) I will be planting milkweed next year just so I can feel the seeds, lol.
ReplyDeleteYour last photo is so neat! And I love the studied expression on your daughter looking through her hands lens.
