Pretty Pink Accents

While at a park with my sons and on the lookout for something pretty I came across these bundles of teeny tiny pink blooms. They are called 'swamp smartweed'. Not a very pretty name. Not a pretty name at all. 

But these pink blooms ARE pretty and they gleamed in the afternoon sunlight, accenting the edge of a marshy stretch on the outskirts of the park.
