    Oh I too like thistles. Your Pairs photos are fantastic. What an interesting day trip. Aren't some regiments in the British Forces using the Thistle as their group's insignia?

      Sorry to butt in. I think so, especially Scottish ones (the thistle is an emblem of Scotland and their national flower).

    I like these thistles; the one close up definitely shows how intricate of a plant it is!

    Super pictures. The thistles are looking spectacular at the moment. Interestingly there are two Imber Pairs this week!

    Lovely as always Eileen! Your thistle down is so clear and fluffy (though I wasn't so enthusiastic about it when picking it out of a bowl of blackberries!)
