jblue, 
Strongly considering collecting seeds and planting these around trees as revenge on squirrels for digging up seedlings and stealing fruit. 😈… 🐿️🐿️🐿️😱☠️

Close-up of the yellow and brown thistle center showing intricate details and textures. The stamens are deep in the center and look like the end of spaghetti noodles squeezed into a bunch.
A wider shot of the thistle. It is actually a very large plant. The leaves look like arugula if it were massively thorny and could be used as a weapon. The rolled up hedgehog of a flower sits on top of this giant vicious plant.
