It’s like snow in June, yet it’s not. Cottonwood (Populus Deltoid) seedheads fly through the air in vast quantities especially in a city park. If one has allergies then its best to be outdoors for only short periods. Copyright 2026 Pamela BreitbergI would assume the spider would be upset to see today’s “catch”. Copyright 2026 Pamela BreitbergQuite humbling how prolific Cottonwood seeds are in Lincoln Park. Copyright 2026 Pamela BreitbergI can’t help but wonder if anyone uses these fluffy seeds as creative stuffing? Copyright 2026 Pamela BreitbergThe Purple Martin homes are not exempt from Cottonwood collections. Copyright 2026 Pamela Breitberg
Fabulous!!!
I do feel like it’s snowing when I walk through falling Cottonwood seeds. Awesome. But then I get home and take allergy meds!
