"The resting horses nibbled the remaining wisps of hay, and they stamped their feet and they bit the wood of the mangers and rattled the halter chains."chapter 5, page 82, Penguin Books
A wisp is a small bundle or bunch of straw, hair or grass.

At the barn my sister and I ride at the parents often say "wisps of hay"then they go and get a handful or so of it, I think wisp means small amount maybe..
ReplyDeleteMy sister has a lot of hiar that sticks up off her head and my dad calls them "wispies". I'm guessing that they're the same thing as a wisp.
