Milkweed seeds...............from very late in the season. I thought that my little section of "wilderness" (usually called the side yard) didn't have any of this plant this year. But one small collection of "fliers" turned up when they seem to have vanished everywhere else. So I made a point of getting close on a recent sunny day.
