Tiny weed flower

This flower and developing seed head are the cobbler peg plant. Conditions at least around Sydney are such that they are flourishing in a way I haven't seen in a long time. In fact I haven't given them much thought since childhood when I used to get hundreds of them, as I went racing through the bush, in my clothes and the cocker spaniel's coat. They became so snagged it took hours to get them out. So clearly this plant is very good at seed dispersal - any passing wombat, bandicoot, child or dog is doing the job for them.

Thanks for hosting Wendy. Stay well all.
