Guessing there must be Carex
mixed in with that Vaccinium. We collected seeds from several species of Carex this week and came home with hundreds of these guys.

yep
definitely some bunchgrasses and sedges mixed in there. These guys are super common almost everywhere I go, but for some reason not too many get posted.
