There must be a dozen different grasses in that clip - the tall stuff looks like couch grass. You'd need pictures of all of them flowering to make them easier to identify. It would help if you said which continent they're on, too.

All grass is a weed, unless it's a crop or a decoration.

Alopecurus arundinaceaus would cause instant hair loss around (arund) your inaceaus. See, I know my Latin!

I'm just sayin........
I expressly forbid the use of any of my posts anywhere outside of FG (with the exception of the incredibly witty 'get a room already' )posted recently.

Folks who'd like to copy my intellectual work should expect to pay me for it.:-6
