Aug 13, 2022 South Lakes Greenway - New Hiking Trail

Today I found a new hiking trail that is asphalt. I runs from route 55 to behind the South Lakes subdivision. I didn't realize it but there's a lake back there. I got some good photographs of waterfowl up close and detailed. Most of the ducks are domesticated and mixed. There were some Mallards that still seemed pure-bred. And, there were maybe 25 Canadian Geese.

I've checked observations I've uploaded. One plant species is a grass or ground cover and very airy and lightweight. I have this grass growing wild in my front yard under pine trees. I hope to get it identified soon. I really would like to know exactly what it is.
