There was a lot of Milkweed in this unmown field and a touch of fall foliage around the perimeter.
In the hour or so I was there the sky clouded up.
The breeze lifted a few seeds up and away, but it was not very dramatic.
Looking into the corner of the field a Blue Jay zipped into a tree.

These Milkweed seeds had broken out of their pod but weren’t getting away.
It was breezy, but not enough to set the seeds free while I was watching.
Another perspective, looking down on the cluster.

This combo reminds me of a still life painting, where the green pod, empty pod, dried leaves and the fluffed up pod are artfully placed.
This group had a colorful photobomber.
These few seeds were slowly escaping, held back by entanglements inside the pod.
