Thistles

On our walk this morning around Rushden Lake the thistles were all starting to bloom. They look very spiky - best not to go too close!!

Best on black

An early walk before the temperature rose and it was quite pleasant being out before many other walkers.

Many thanks for visiting my project and leaving your comments - always appreciated!!
