My Thistle

I have allowed this large thistle to grow in my front yard; I hope that my neighbors don’t mind. It is next to another large bush, so it is pretty discrete.

It is at least 6 feet tall and has dozens of flowers on it. I love having these around because the goldfinches and butterflies love it too. I’m looking forward to the show.

I noticed the small critter on the flower only when getting close enough for the photo.
