seed pearls

This picture of water beads on a dandelion seed head was taken today on my walk in the woods with Minnie the dog.

It was only misting rain, but because the undergrowth is summer-dense and sopping wet, I returned with my jeans soaked almost to my hip-bone.

Minnie looked like a seal just out of ocean.

So this was a nice shot to come out of a overcast, drizzly day.
