Think it's a thistle, don't know which variant. Made on a rainy short walk.

I usually don't see very many until mid/late summer.
Knapweed -
Centaurea
Sunflower family - (Asteraceae)
Here are some versions I have:

I think it's Black Knapweed. I'm surprised that a lot of the wildflowers you post are the same ones we have here in Newfoundland. But you're about a month ahead of us in blooming.
