..and still more...turtles, koi, metal grasshopper, and of course, the "surfacing alligator" (although I think mine is fairly cool, cuz' he looks more "real" ha....). Some of my little friends are showing their wear/age, some are not. Still there is more.....
Funny story about "broken junk"...my sister has bad luck with ornamental animals in her yard. It seems that the "real" animals take issue with the imposters, and actually knock them over (boxing?), and even carry them off. She thought at first it may be neighborhood kids, but then has observed squirrels, rabbits, and woodchucks assaulting various decorations! My stuff stays unmolested for the most part, although I did have to move my plastic bunnies a few times, because they got moved and knocked over more than once. Thanks for the comment ukbob...I really thought the alligator added another dimension to an otherwise boring patch of gravel.
Lisa i love the Alligator.He does look realistic (a worthy specimen myrtle??).My fairys get knocked over frequently and the gnomes.I dont know why either...thanks for photographing them.Bet it was like reaquainting yourself with old friends!!
I must admit, I love my extraneous "junk", it makes me smile even when the flowers are sleeping in the off-seasons. Guess that's why I have such a collection...

Lucky you, all my "junk" ends up broken.
I like the Alligator best, I think it looks really good.

HA! Oh that's just too funny! Now I have visions of chipmunks wearing tiny boxing gloves
