Hi all,

And is this Bush Vetch?

Thanks a lot

tip; meadow foxtail is a very early grass - on the othe earliest to head - and Timothy a very late one. Timothy heads are much more 'regular' in shape too - when you see them in July/Aug they are unmistakeble.

Thanks Joules, thats a good tip - I knew they were different in time, but not by so much! Makes ID much easier, ta.
