I promised to share more pictures from the recent Cooper-Young Garden Walk. Here’s some of the yard art (garden art, where I’m from) that was liberally scattered around the 90 or so private gardens taking part.
Did you see any you liked?
Whimsical Yard Art in the Cooper-Young District

What a lift away from realities! I particularly covet the drumming frog. Thank you!
Are you really sure you want any more noisy wildlife as a neighbour?
A fun lot of whimsies, Susan. I esp. like the hippy bee and cockerel.
I liked the hippy bee a lot too.
I loved this. I am creating some stacked stone sculptures. The universe told me to.
Then let’s hope that sets the universe to rights!
It is therapeutic.
Being a huge fan of garden ornaments, I liked every single one.
I felt confident you’d like the frogs, at the very least.
I liked them all, too. We need all the whimsy we can get, and these surely are whimsical.
I thought so too.
Love that cow! And the pig planter is cute.
The cow has loads of character.
Charming without being too saccharine. I’m rather taken by the flamingos. Turquoise eh? Who knew?
It seems strange there are not more blue ones, once you’ve seen one.
All wonderful work well photographed. Hippy bee and Drummer frog amused me most; I iridescent butterfly most artistic
The hippy bee made me smile. I initially thought it was a butterfly until I saw the stripes.
The cockerel and the iridescent butterflies appealed, but my favorite was the last. It didn’t remind me of a cow so much as the mythical Auroch in the film Beasts of the Southern Wild.
I was not sure what to call it. Auroch would have been much better. We had real aurochs over here until a few centuries ago. I’d have loved to have seen one.
All are wonderful, but my favourites are Hippy Bee and the rusty cow. š
A good choice of favourites.
