When I was a child I used to love playing with these milkweed pods; letting them float away on the soft breeze. Their hair is so soft and silky. Seeing these brought back those memories…

I wanted to share this photo with my kids, so they know what they are. I grew up playing with milkweed pods & the breeze
Those were innocent days when we didn’t need anything electronic to have fun; to enjoy the world. Thank you for sharing it.
thank you for the memories. ~amy
Lovely capture…
Thank you. They did take me back in time…
Beautiful. I don’t remember ever seeing milkweed before.
Really? I guess it depends on where you grew up.
I hv NEVER seen one of these. It’s quite amazing though!
Never? How interesting. Monarch butterflies depend on them.
Lovely!
Thanks 🙂
Clever title, Teri, for a really stunning photo. 🙂
Thank you. Sometimes they just speak to me.
