@JaneR any idea?

Sorry, no ideas. It doesn’t seem to be a wet habitat. It may not be a freshwater plant.

See Alisma plantago-aquatica (Water Plantain) from the (downhill) creek line.
Maybe a spent seed stem of water plantain that broke off and was blown around?
I think to remember there was water plantain growing along the edge of the lower dam of the twin dams. I haven't checked the dams and the creek line for a while.

Consider Sisyrinchium rosulatum, it likes wet areas and is small, like your photos seem to show. But maybe would not have such long stems shown in one photo.

Thats a very good suggestion, I had a look around on Inat and there are similar photos.

Probably also explains why I had difficulty finding foliage.
