aka Beard grass,
Rabbitsfoot Grass, Rabbit's Foot, Annual
rabbitsfoot grass, Rabbitfoot polypogon |

Photographed July 7, the sizes of the seed heads varied from 1/2 inch up to
almost 4 inches in length! |

Found this grass growing alongside the shore buttercup
on the floating islands in the Klamath Wildlife Reserve. |

Photographed August 4, this grass is almost all gone to seed. |

I was unable to get any pictures of the stems and leaves because the grass was just
out of reach. |

This and the next picture were taken August 22. |
