Yep, I've been wearing out my little leaf blower, trying to keep the pathways and pool cage clear of those dag-nabbed oak tassels! If they sit on the screening the little flowers 'rain' through into the pool when they dry out. If the (fluffy, long haired) cat lies down in them, she comes in looking like she's been rolled in coconut and baked.

Speaking of rain, we had a good shower last night around midnight, thankfully. It's been quite a while since we got any - it all goes north of us.

Those weeds are called 'Cupid's Shaving Brush' or more correctly, Florida Tassel Flower. Florida Tassel Flower (Emilia fosbergii) I have red ones but yours are yellow.

I'd get busy and yank them before those seeds blow all over, Jean. Gorgeous chicken! Bet one of your neighbors was out looking for that one, it looks like an exotic type.
