This dandelion is in full seed mode with 150 – 200 seeds. Sometimes this stage is called a puff ball. Soon a breeze will take the seeds on a remarkable journey.

I wonder how I lived 57 yrs without ever calling that a puffball!?

Loved to blow on them! Did you ever completely clear one out in one breath/blow?
