KB, those Daffs are lovely, nice color combination.

How do you think those Chionodoxa seed get dispersed? Rain, wind, birds?
How about ants.
We had a storm after I snapped that pic yesterday, actually 2 storms. Out of curiosity I checked on them today. Much to my surprise I saw a couple ants taking the pods inner flesh/fiber away. One piece still had a seed stuck to it and was also carried away. I ran for the camera this time, lol.
I had to search for the little critter but eventually found it and quickly snapped this. You can see the seed clinging to the tan flesh.
I lost track of it almost a yard away from the seed pod.
