Thorny Subject by fbailey

Thorny Subject

I was given a packet of teasel seeds for the garden to help feed the birds. This year they are trying to take over - some of them have to be at least 8 ft high and still growing.

I played with a Helios lens and this is the result of one of the not so tall teasels.
Teasels make such good subjects to photograph dont they Felicity? I have a few teasel shots!! Loving this in b&w

@jgpittenger Robins, starlings, wagtails, sparrows and finches eat the dried seed heads Jane. I knew chaffinches and gold finches did, but I'm not as knowledgeable as I sound, I asked Google!
