These thrive on the Trans Pennine Trail.

See them in context on Hyde DP Xtra.

See one from a different angle on Hokum.

That is such a crisp close up. You've captured all the detail. Lovely.

Well Captured....
I imagine these were spread around by the trains at one time. These would have been much sought after in the past and used to 'tease' the nap from cloth.... I se then at country shows on craft stalls where they are dressed and made into little mice folk..
These are much sought after by Gold Finches as well Gerald, they love the tiny seeds.
