Quivering in the wind
I love these dainty little grasses with their slender stems and interesting form.
The aptly named Quiver grass, shakes in even the gentlest of breezes, making it a challenge to get super sharp images. This one will have to do for now!
Common name: Quake grass; Quaking grass; Shaking grass.
Botanical name: Briza maxima.
Family: Poaceae.
Taken in the Mountainside neighbourhood of Gordon's Bay, Western Cape, South Africa.
