Aren't these thistles spectacular? The fields are dotted with pink!
So very pretty! See a few more pictures on flickr.

    As much as I hate these in the garden I look forward to them in the fields. I love to see goldfinches perched in them!

    Isn't that pink gorgeous, Elena?

    Lynn, I saw the goldfinches on the thistles this evening! I couldn't believe it! There were several and of course I didn't have my camera. :(
