A couple of weeks ago, I finally had time for a walk in the local bog, which was great, because it was cottongrass season:





I love cottongrass, and I've missed seeing it, because the last year, I was too busy with stuff to take the time to go.

Cottongrass looks so cool!

Fun fact to make it even more cool: apparently people used to use it to make pillows.

I remember reading that a long time ago. The Swedish name is Ängsull "meadow wool".

In German, it's Wollgras - "wool grass". But I really like the sound of Ängsull.
