Hi guys,
Always thought this was prickly (ish) sow thistle but someone said it’s ragwort?? What do you think?

It's a bit hard for me to tell, because I can't enlarge this on my computer, but I think it might be Ragwort. Does it have little prickles/spines along the edges of the leaves? If not then it probably isn't Prickly Sowthistle. I'll ask Lin to have a look.

Lin has had a look, and she is sure it's Ragwort, so please don't feed it. Sorry to be the bearer of disappointing news!
