Yes, that is it, here it is pictured on my Kansas Native Wildflower site that I use as a guide to go get seeds and plants, I found a crop load of these out west of town in what we refer to as THE BIG DITCH.. it catches run over water.

too bad I can't convince the picture taker of this site to join daves but he is really picky about his photos and where they go.. anyway.. here is another picture I took, this guy was in a Natural Garden right about twenty feet from me, the gy who rescues wild birds around here has rasied this one since he was 8 weeks old.
He had a great Horned Owl the last day I was there, both of these birds claws have a 300 pound grip.. this Golden eagles name is :Callie: she and I kept looking at each other wishing we were somewhere else..
