Grass

I knew that grass is wind pollinated, but hadn’t really taken much more notice than that really, as why should I? It’s green stuff looks pretty and it needs cutting fairly frequently if you have some in the back garden.

The trip to Llangrannog a few weeks ago has changed that though. These grasses were blowing merrily in the wind that had blown all the way from across the Atlantic, they were pretty enough I thought and merited a shot or two before moving onto the next cliff face/sky whatever I snapped next. It was not until I got home that I realised just how beautiful and intricate the pollinating mechanism is in grasses, as uploading the photos gave me this. I was stunned if honest by the beauty.

Thanks for stopping
