So beautiful. How hot is it? Must give my sister a ring, she lives in Lancashire. She will love it if it is hot.

This is so pretty. I don't know much about poppies. I don't see them around here very often.

Great capture Beryl!! I love poppies but they have such a short life. I am enjoying watching my seed heads getting fatter each day.
