Someone should be able to ID it by the seed head, but if not, can you take another picture on a cloudy day or in the shade? There's too much contrast to see the blades or leaves.

Hordeum sp. perhaps. Where are you located? That can help narrow the possibilities.

Certainly a Hordeum sp

Southern Utah. I'll have to look up Hordeum so and see what that means! Thanks guys.

Sure dchall, another pic incoming!

I looked up Hordeum sp. and that appears to have really thin blades. This grass has thicker grass blades. Kind of like a Kentucky bluegrass?

I looked up Hordeum sp.

==>> you looked up every plant within the sp. .... within the species???

If you have pets, especially dogs: foxtails

or http://www.uvhdc.com/2014/08/08/foxtails-the-small-seed-that-can-cause-big-problems-by-shawn-bybee-dvm/

I thought foxtail too but the seeds are soft and not the pokey kind that always get caught on my socks during a hike! lol

No ken_adrian, just Hordeum sp. I see there's a ton of species that start with Hordeum though. Still unsure now... hehe

thanks all for your input!

Thank you jekeesl. :)
