I'm not surprised that these lovely poppies are slightly floppy! Today they have survived temperatures in the mid thirties. A short time under the sprinkler probably helped them (and me) through the scorching day :))
This perennial native wildflower, Prickly Poppy, has petals that "flop around" in the breeze. They were seen in several natural areas (i.e. not infested with subdivisions of houses, strip malls, etc) around Denver, Colorado
Their name "Prickly Poppy" refers to its stems and leaves that resemble those of a thistle. In fact, if the flowers were not present, they would be easily mistaken for a thistle.
This is one of the Boer Goats at the park I visited yesterday morning, it's a young female. All goats are lovely but I think that the ears of the Boer Goats are particularly cute.
This adorable white tailed deer fawn was being bothered by pesky flies. I captured it with its ears flopped over and tail swatting the flies away.

My thanks to Kitty Von Cat for the use of her fun summer build!! ♥♥
Hi There!
This peony bloom reminded me of a floppy, summer hat! Incidentally, its perfume was simply beautiful.
Thank you for stopping by and for your comments. I do LOVE hearing from you! Have a wonderful day!

No Photoshop as always!
I'm totally in love with the water shape that remembers Randall Boggs from Monsters Inc. ♡

This duo has performed many a landing exercise before.
Sometimes though you can come in just a little too fast then it becomes a belly and neck flop landing.
Frame 3 on the top row shows just such an action.
Pushing on that trigger is like pulling magic into my very soul...Darrell.
Have yourselves a safe and happy day dear Flickr friends !

... it comes to something when you find yourself wandering around a museum exhibition recognising all that is on display as something that you used, listened to or wore! I'm toooo far over that hill.
It was great fun though and brought back many memories.
Floppy disks became commonplace during the 1980s and 1990s in their use with personal computers to distribute software, transfer data, and create backups. A popular medium for nearly 40 years, but their use was in decline by the mid-1990s when along came formats like the USB thumb drives and more affordable external back up drives.

All four times I've visited the marvel that is Pompeii - I've been moved by the heart-breaking and harrowing sight of so many dogs wandering the ancient ruins and streets there.
Some of the dogs I saw were clearly emaciated, unloved.
I've read that over the years, people began using the ancient ruins as a place to dump unwanted pets. Few of them I imagined would have been spayed, so puppies add to the homeless population.
I am sure they stay at the site because the millions of visitors will provide tasty treats and loving attention.
In 2010, just a few years before I was last there and took this shot, the government gave over funds for an organisation project to gather the dogs, sterilize them, provide them with veterinary care and promote their adoption. Dog houses were scattered around the site.
Sadly, most of the money was embezzled by the then-Commissioner for Pompeii, Marcello Fiori, now under indictment for corruption.
From what I saw during that last visit, the situation for these canines had not improved.
Cave canem 'beware of dog' is a famous mosaic found at the entrance to several properties in Pompeii.

My last post of a "Little Planet" wasn't a big hit, but I don't give up easily. The results of this strange technique are totally unpredictable, and I think this one is good for a laugh.
There were so many star fish on the beach at Homer Alaska. I've never seen starfish on the beach like this. Altho they look floppy laying across the rocks, they were actually pretty stiff and sticky. For some reason this one made me think of “Patrick Star” on Sponge Bob Square Pants. Guess I’ve watched too much kid’s TV programs!
