Greetings to all.  Back in Austin we find a proto grain grass full of
opportunity to spread and multiply:

Some plants are a little more defensive in nature:

These seed pods don't travel far from the parent:

These look ready to be consumed and excreted:

On a different note, when an owner is ready to let their property be bought
and developed you find a distinct lack of maintenance:

At a large retention pond done well there has been an interesting mix of
plants as they work out their ecological niche:

All the best.
