Love the pictures! I really like the bottle tree and the bottle "marsh". Very creative, but I can't imagine leaving the marsh out all year around. Kieka, your pictures are so pretty.

I don't even remember where we got that vane; I'm thinking it might have been from eBay. I know that it got rusted quickly, so Rick took it down, took all the rust off and then spray-painted it with Rustoleum in black. It is on top of the arbor going into the pool area. Apex, the Flying Dragon, landed on the arbor, too, and he's been there ever since.

Here is Apex during a sleet storm; I'm sure he was not amused. It's hard to see him, but he's there. I need to get a good picture of him, now that spring is here. I can't find any pictures of Apex, nor can I find any of Ronauld. Ronauld is our other little gargoyle who lives in the side yard. He is one of the rainspout gargoyles.

Oh, and we also have a CatGoyle on the side of our shed now. I don't have any pictures of him, but he looks like this. This picture is of the CatGoyle that climbed up the wall above the basement door inside the house.

The whole yard and all the gardens still need to be cleaned up, but I started putting the garden ornaments out yesterday. I put out the one I bought at the end of the season last year and really like it!
