Is the purple flower some type of thistle? I love those and how they attract the wild finches

They weren't close enough to shoot with rain aproaching on my ride.
I'm sorry I didn't get the oxeyes on the way out when there was sun.

I'm not familiar with the oxeye flowers, but they are stunning.

Thanks for all of these!

The bees were having a feeding frenzy with the Oxeyes.

I didn't know the name but found it with a flower search program.

Flat lighting makes some flowers just glow.
