Blue grama is New Mexico's official state grass.
Blue grama is a native, warm-season, low-growing, perennial bunchgrass. It dominates more than one-third of the total usable range in Arizona and New Mexico.
In the summer, the feathered heads look like little flags, but later on the flags become circles.

I especially like the magnifying glass look and the extra stem creates a more interesting composition, thanks for the "Well done".

That's incredible. AT first I thought it might be first nation weaving, but to find out that it is actually a grass! wow!

Thanks for sharing your thought of this being a "first nation weaving." I will never look at this without thinking exactly that and isn't this what makes ViewBug so much fun!

You have made my head fill with such pride that I can hardly hold it up to see what I'm typing. Thinking when I count my blessings today that for sure I will count you twice (^_^). My wife says it is her favorite photo.
