Blowball

Taken on our walk from Brampford Speke to Stoke Canon. I am not exactly sure what kind of flower that is but a little research tells me it could be the sead head of Tragopogon pratensis - commonly known as Meadow salsify or the much better name 'Jack-go-to-bed-at-noon' (because they only open at morning sunshine). The blowball was quite big, nicely presenting each of the little seed parachutes making for a nice macro I think.
