Thistles and Butterflies

Lining several of the holes on today's golf course were many wild thistles, which I thought were pretty much restricted to Scotland. I was pleasantly surprised to see these on the course and went to take a photo, and a butterfly decided to join in. Very happy to get a two-for-one!

Two for one for sure, great timing and shot, just lovely especially while doing something you seem to enjoy! Fav
