Burdock at College Lake Nature Reserve, near Tring
Commonly known as lesser burdock, burweed, louse-bur, common burdock, button-bur, cuckoo-button, or wild rhubarb. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arctium_minus
This was growing at the edge of the path to the Barns and when the seed heads are ripe they will firmly attach themselves to any hairy object, so don't brush against them. Dogs are very prone to get the burrs badly tangled in their fur.
