Pipewort Eriocaulon aquaticum wildflower, flower, Connemara, Ireland, Galway, Britain, Irish, British,

This unusual plant usually grows in water, with just the button-like flowers appearing above the surface. However, the weather has been unusually dry in the West of Ireland this year, so I photographed these at the edge of a lake, where the water had receded.
