Amazing! Wild Fennel Seed Pod

It is amazing how these seeds are tightly wound together in sort of a ball. I was sure it was Teasel, but since I am no expert that could be a wrong assumption. Whatever it is, it is another wonder of nature, which never ceases to amaze me with the superior wisdom displayed.

Laura gave me a link to Shutterstock that convinces me that this is Fennel! See Laura's comment below!

Gorgeous shot, Vern. I believe this is wild fennel - in the seed stage, obviously. :) See:
