Today's Flowers: Sea Oats

Topsail. A sunrise through the long legs of some sea oats.  Not a flower but a plant, and not even the whole plant.  Just the stems. These oats grow on along the length of the dunes at Topsail. When I am up in time for the sunrise, my first view at the beach is through the oats.  I just love it.

  8. Great pic, Your remark about the oats being the first thing you see in the morning prompted "Over the woods, and through the oats...." in my mind.

    Sorry, I'm a little lightheaded this morning I guess.
