I had people tell me I was crazy to let some thistles grow. I have around 20 thistles that are in bloom and going to seed. Today I saw two times where a goldfinch was eating the seeds.
On a side note I measured a deer hoof print that was 4 inches across with a 1 inch thick hoof in the U shape all the way around. It is the biggest one I have seen.
