These are two different life stages of the same flower. It blooms as seen in the top photo, then forms a green spiky ball, then it "lets its hair down" in the final seed stage. (The hairy stage often reminds me of a Muppet!)
It is one of the earlier subalpine flowers to bloom so the meadow and lake basin at Owyhigh were filled with these flowers in their various stages of life.

Phycocaris simulans (Kemp 1916) is the only species in the genus Phycocaris (family Hippolytidae). It is commonly
known as hairy shrimp due to the extreme camouflage that closely resembles the small turf of algae within which it can
often be found (Johnson 1989; Gan and Li 2017). This one (2-3mm) is carrying eggs.(Galaxea, Journal of Coral Reef Studies) Romblon, Philippines.
There are so many of these plants, that I have to post a closeup with the previous image. I have four more views, but I'll save them for another day.
In the interim, more aboit Leucospermom, Pom Pom / Pincushion flowers. Leucospermum species mostly have seated, simple, mostly leathery, often softly hairy leaves, set in a spiral, with entire margins or more often, with 3–17 blunt teeth with thickened, bony tips, and without stipules at their foot. The flowers are organised with many together in heads with bracts on the under- or outside.
Most pincushions are upright shrubs or even small trees of 1–5 m (3.3–16.4 ft) high, that usually have a single main stem. Some species however only have trailing branches and can form low mats, 1–5 m (3.3–16.4 ft) in diameter. Yet another set of species grow several stems directly from a rootstock in the ground. This is an important character in distinguishing between some species.
