Section of fruit - showing partitions containing seeds. Each seed has a gelatinous sheath. The fruits look like swollen flower buds - but have pulled under the surface of the water. The seeds are favoured food of pygmy geese.

Unsure about the ID. It clearly has 2 skirts of cilia, one surrounding what appears to be a mouth (top in photo) and one that appears as a low-waisted, decorative fringe :o)

After historically planted American Ash were cut down in the Sanctuary, a massive seed bank created a seedling forest. Pic 2 shows removal by tree popper. Fortunately, the grassland has rehabilitated.
Pic 1 is a coppiced stump. These trees grow readily in wet/marshy conditions.
