Daucus Carotus
Better known as Queen Anne's Lace, this wildflower is abundant along roadways.
Also known as wild carrot (hence it's proper name "Daucus Carotus"), it is called "bird's nest" in England and from this photo, one can begin to see the hint of a nest when the plant unfurls each portion of its blossom as the flower in the background shows. While it can be eaten, it bears a resemblance to hemlock which is poisonous. Best to not get the two confused.
