Whazzit Weed - 5
This invasive weed is a pain in the neck (and back!) to keep under control, but it sure is pretty first thing in the morning, covered with water droplets.
I used my Little BigShot macro lens to focus in even closer.
And by the way, thanks to Crow for identifying the weed. She tells me it is "Horsetails" and spreads by sending out spores!
And I just found out how to get rid of it. I think you will find this quite interesting, Crow!
"Common horsetail, Equisetum arvense was the first vascular plant seen recovering after the 1980 Mount St. Helens eruption and therein lies the answer.
Equisetum arvense is found in areas with soil with little or no nutritional content, for example, gravel pits. Simply raising the nutritional content of your soil by adding generous quantities of composted materials will, in time, get rid of your horsetail."
