This is some kind of wild, probably non-native, annual grass. What is it?

It looks like it may be some type of Brome but I am not positive. This is California Brome ...

I am guessing now that it is some kind of wild barley. It is not robust enough to be domesticated barley, but there are about 6 wild barleys in CA. It just about takes a degree in botany to tell them apart, though.

It very well could be. Lots of similarity.
