Filaree /Stork's Bill (Erodium circutarium):

It is edible, raw or cooked, and can aid to the control of internal bleeding.
It has astringent and anti-inflammatory properties.

At maturity, the tails of the seeds coil like corkscrews; when moistened, they
uncoil, digging into the ground to place and anchor the seeds.
