Dust In The Wind

Dandelion (Taraxacum) has never disappeared in the southeast even in winter. They are native to North America and bloom from spring to fall. I find they are extremely cute and attractive, especially for spring bees and butterflies. After flowering is gone, the flower head will dry for few days and it then forms a parachute shaped ball with dispersal seeds. When next time you pick up a Dandelion, don't forget to make a wish before you blow it and that wish might come true :)

 

This is a lucky shot for me as I was photographing this Dandelion and wind blew all seeds and left one. I just happened to have my camera with me :)
