This is about 5' tall right now and its bloom is sort of cottony. There are two of them blooming right now in my 'meadow' backyard. Any idea what it might be?
Orchard-Grass (
Dactylis glomerata
)

wow, that looks like a match!
Thanks so much! I'm thrilled it hosts so many different skippers.

You're very welcome! That's a naturalized plant in Hawai'i too.
