Hello, everyone.
It's been busy around Ye Olde Homestead and I didn't realize how long it had been since a post was made.
This was a view of a near-dawn walk a few days ago. I just liked the shapes of the trees against the sky.
Today's walk gave me this image:
This is a REALLY big thistle plant. As y'all can see, it's sending up a bloom stalk. I'm not sure which variety of thistle it is--much too small to be an artichoke, plus the climate probably isn't right for a volunteer artichoke anyway. It's not milk thistle, those have variegations on the leaves and don't look as mean and prickery. It does completely fill the setback between the sidewalk and the fence, so probably it's close to a meter/yard across.
If you recognize the plant, please feel free to chime in in the comments and share the info!
