From the lack of focus at the edges of the image, I think you have supplied your own clue, Angie!  Clever girl.

Another hint ... they are not cataract debris.  ;D

Angie tiny is the word. They are 4x4mm.

They are new to me this year but hope to have them every year now

Animal? Vegetable? Mineral? They are vegetable. Have children forgotten about this quiz?

This will confuse our European neighbours. Vegetable in this case means plant.

Anthony when you see the answer you will see that your guess is so close but not correct

it's an annual that appeared in my garden last year for the first time. It appeared again this year again. It's rare.
