What's a flehman face? I googled it but I still don't get it

I think the only pics I have that are close are these two:

try googling cats flehmen-its this face they pull-whats actually happening is they have a scent gland or so in roof of mouth,anyway when they smell something they are tring to analyse and smell more,they open their mouth and it looks so weird-u must have seen it-ok put someth really smelly near y cat-u may get a response.By the way those pictures are fab!!

I think it's the weird look they get when they smell something funny in the air (or in another cat's butt).

We call it the "disgusted" face! I never knew there was a real term for it.

Here's mine.

patch does this face all the time , i will have to snap a shot of it next time he does it.

stoli does this too but i never have the camera around to snap a pic of it....he does it when he's been smelling places on the carpet that may have catnip on it.

i dont know if this has anything to do with it, but it made me laugh.

that is one crazy picture!Brilliant
