Thistle heads
Thistle heads
The flower heads are in the process of wind-blown seed dispersal. For a wider view of the thistles in this field at Yarrow, see NT3527 : A field of thistles at Yarrow. I think this might be creeping thistle (Cirsium arvense) but will of course be happy to know otherwise.
