  • A Maltese Falcon

    A Maltese Falcon

    I found this stone bird statue whilst exploring Malta a few years ago.

  • Warthog Wings

    Warthog Wings

  • A (but not THE) David

    A (but not THE) David

    This is a replica of Michaelangelo’s David, on display in the car park overlooking the beautiful and very picturesque city of Florence in Italy. There are several David statues scattered around the city, amongst the many, many, many other statues that you can find there.

Anyway, I hope…

  • The Stone Eagle

    The Stone Eagle

    This rather aggressive looking stone eagle sits upon the wall outside the Spread Eagle pub at Stourhead.
