The onopordum acanthium or Scottish thistle is seen growing in Finsbury Park in London

The onopordum acanthium or Scottish thistle is seen growing in Finsbury Park in London, June 15, 2014. The Scottish thistle is the national symbol of Scotland and inspired the mascot for this year's Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. Scottish separatists are closing the gap on their unionist rivals as a September independence referendum draws nearer, according to a poll. But pollster TNS said it would still be a "major task" for them to draw level in time. In a poll of 995 adults, TNS found that support for the pro-independence campaign had grown by two points to 32 percent compared with last month, while the campaign to reject independence had slipped back a point to 41 percent. In the run-up to the vote, Reuters photographer Suzanne Plunkett took a series of close-up pictures of food, drink and various objects typically associated with Scotland. Picture taken June 15, 2014.
