Grasslands I

FF
I have been amazed at all the strange little creatures who clamber, spring, vault, rocket, dive or just hitch a ride on my shirt sleeve as I explore the grasslands. I use a pair of canvas gators now, as I quickly tired of trying to pinch and pluck the small grass seeds that seem to be magnetically attracted to my socks. It is surprising how annoying such a small sliver of plant can become and how adapt they are to getting into the most private of places.
