Nice to see you here Bummer...
That flower is a type of thistle... I believe it is Bull Thistle. It's considered a weed and can grow to 6 feet high. The leaves have little thorns or spines on them. I think they are pretty and the animals LOVE them, so I leave them out there when I see them. I might have some pictures somewhere of some butterflies on them. When they go to seed the birds will feed from them as well... thistle seed.
