Field Notes

Description:

Today, it was very, very, windy outside. Around 10:30 a.m. in the morning, I looked out of a window, and I saw a white, flying seed, stuck to the right side of the window. This window, was to the left, of the front door. The color of the tufts of hair, is white. The color of the seed, is brown. The brown seed, is attached to a long, thin stalk, which is then attached, to tufts of hair, which is white. The whole flying seed ( white and dark parts ), is one fourth of an inch wide, and one half of an inch long. The seed ( dark part ), is three sixteenth of an inch long. This flying seed, is dispersed by the wind. - Is this the flying seed, of a Dandelion plant?

Habitat:

I spotted this flying seed, stuck to the right side of a window.

Notes:
