Still standing for Ukraine

I had posted a picture of this giraffe a while ago, but the Ukrainian flag wasn’t very well arranged and was even hard to recognize. I went by the house a few weeks later, and they had fixed it. It’s still there and I suspect it will remain until the end of the unprovoked war in Ukraine, which unfortunately could be a long time.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by PBase are decidedly
unsharp.

The giraffe has a long neck and well suited to display the length of the flag......nice find and capture...V

A beautiful and artful yard ornament. Hats off for this show of support for Ukraine.

A sad reminder of the terrible situation there.

Excellent shot. I just hope the West doesn't get soft and let Putin have his way eventually.

Wonderful shot, Helen. I am glad to see the flags still flying for Ukraine, each day that the war continues is a disgrace and I point the finger at one man! V

no wonder that tree is thin on leaves...a giraffe's neck makes a good flagpole, and works also as a symbol of Ukraine's vulnerability at the moment..
