@Tapirlord the tussock appears fairly sparse and wiry, and the inflorescences distinctly appressed to the stem, which is a better fit for A. ramosa. While I will admit there can be almost complete overlap in features, the A. personata I have observed tend to be much denser knee-high tussocks with looser inflorescences. It is also worth remembering that A. personata was once treated as a variety of A. ramosa being var. speciosa.

My guess is Eragrostis parviflora, but this grass is so spent it is hard to tell
Eragrostis sp.

Not sure how comfortable I am calling these A.ramosa. I think A.personata is more common out your way @MattM
