Taking Flight

I know this thistledown just means even more thistles sprouting up all over the field next year, but it's so pretty as it floats off into the sky. Funny how the seedheads look just like miniature shaving brushes. Sorry not to have commented on many pictures today - I'm very busy. Plotting mainly (five outlines to do by Friday!) and a newspaper to publish (School Newspaper, written by the children - should feature in a photo one day next week, I hope!)
beautiful but snows will not like all those extra thistles

The thoroughbred track nearby is called "Thistledown" - I'd almost forgotten what it was named after...! Nice shot!

Yes I agree that it's worth the nettles later.
