SALISBURY, England (UPI) – A British 9-year-old said he discovered a seven-leaf clover while hunting for the four-leaf variety with his father in a nature reserve.
Alastair Barnes said he was walking in the Coombe Bassett nature reserve, near Salisbury, England, when he came upon the seven-leaf clover, a variety experts said are even rarer than the traditionally lucky four-leaf clovers, the Daily Mail reported.
“I was really hoping to find a four-leaf clover when I spotted one with seven leaves,” the boy said. “I was amazed and I immediately shouted to my dad: ‘Daddy daddy, I’ve found a seven-leaf clover.’
“He didn’t believe me at first but then he came over and had a look for himself,” Alastair said. “I picked it and took it home. It was amazing to find something so rare — I was so happy.”
The boy said he is keeping the clover in a book to keep it safe.
