Thistles In Bloom

The humble, prickly, robust thistle is the flower of Scotland. There are a few legends about how it became the flower of the Scots.

Nothing was ever proven but there is a story how the thistle saved the Scottish army when an invading Viking stepped on a patch of thistles and let out a cry from the sting of the needles. His bellowing alerted the sleeping Scots and saved them from the ambush.

Nice picture. Good luck in the contest. I could never imagine posting about thistles but these even in black and white have a life of their own.

Thank you @mineopoly for your support and kindness. Have a great weekend.

Those are so pretty! :D
