It's hip to be hairy: Beards have not only come back into fashion, they also have cultural and religious significance throughout the world.

Thomas Dambo - Troll #118 - Benny the Beard Fisher. Commisioned by Northland Outfitters in 2023. Germfask, Michigan (the Upper Peninsula).
Meet Shaun from "near Nimbin". he is in Queensland for a work project in Toowoomba. "I build oil rigs" Shaun told me. "I may not look like it but I do" he explained. I was a bit perplexed as I have no pre conceived ideas about what an oil rig builder would look like.
"We will be finished this project soon and then we are off to Scotland for a big project. Provided the world calms down a bit before then".

This is the dreaded Goat's-beard, a highly invasive, non-native plant that has spread (and keeps spreading, despite attempts to control it) in our natural areas in the city and beyond. Too bad, because both the beautiful flower and huge Dandelion-like seedhead are most attractive.

On 26 June 2016, a fair-sized group of people spent the morning on a walk led by Erik Butters, out past Cochrane, NW of Calgary. This land consists of rolling, open hills and areas of woodland, with the Rocky Mountains in the distance. This event was the 8th Annual Flora & Fauna Fundraising for Ghost River Watershed Outing.
Fortunately, I knew how to drive to this distant location, so I was able to pick up friend Dorothy and off we went together. We allowed plenty of time to get there, just in case of heavy traffic or else we saw something interesting en route. This meant that there was time for me to stop and take a few photos of a Llama in someone's field, a couple of beautiful Longhorn cattle lying down and a small herd of maybe half a dozen Elk that we saw way off in the distance.
I think everyone was more than ready for lunch by the time our hike was over! Going to our destination was all uphill, which I normally avoid at all cost. Coming down used less energy, but painful knees felt every step on the way down : )
Around 1:00 pm, Erik and his partner provided a great BBQ for those of us from Calgary and for the people who had joined us from elsewhere. As always, the food was delicious! Thank you so much, both of you! Amazingly, the sun shone and there was no rain, despite the weather forecast.
Interesting face with a beard worthy of ZZ Top. The eyes are kind of sweet.

Oh and I'm going camping for the weekend so I don't know when I'll be back.
Still hard for me to believe this is the middle of winter! Unusually nice day, beautiful sky, nice light. I was in the right place at the right time.
A flower whose various names are almost as beautiful as the petals themselves - Jupiter's Beard, red valerian, kiss me quick, spur valerian, fox's brush, and the scientific name Centranthus ruber. Found growing wild in Seattle, Washington, USA.
Not really a macro but it is a close up of what looks like a giant dandelion head gone to seed.
Tragopogon pratensis (common names Jack-go-to-bed-at-noon, meadow salsify, showy goat's-beard or meadow goat's-beard) is a biennial plant in the Asteraceae family, distributed across Europe and North America, commonly growing in fields (hence its name) and on roadsides. It is found in North America from southern Ontario to Massachusetts; most of England; on the eastern and southern edges of Scotland; and central Ireland but not the coastal edges.
It flowers between June and October and its flowers have a diameter of 3–5 cm. The root and buds are edible, and it has a milky latex. [Wikipedia]
