Wild Grasses


The open fields within Caumsett State Park are covered with natural grasses, in some cases three feet tall or higher.  I was walking through a field of these grasses toward a giant Beech tree because I wanted to see what was inside a kind of "igloo" made by the branches and leaves that come out from the trunk and curve down to the ground. The little seeds along the grasses were sparkling in the sun which got my attention.  Suddenly it occurred to me that I should take a close up of just one of these stalks!  Funny how the mind works that I could walk through these things for one hundred feet, before it hits me to photograph one of them.
