Cool google pics. Pigweed at this time of year is that color but 3x times as big as in his pic. Foxtail darkens later in the year, unlike your google pic. Walk through foxtail and try to pick it off your knee highs socks and tell us it isn't black.

For the record these seeds come out of a doves gut after being run through a gizzard enzyme gravel blender. We could both be way off.

I have always found tiny, I mean miniscule, black seeds in doves. Never have figured those out.
