The top of this thing’s tail is about 5 feet tall. (that’s 1.8 metres for the rest of the world)
Have a great Wednesday! ~Phil

Where is this? You find the most interesting things!
It’s in a small upstate NY town called Olean. A lot of New York towns and cities have taken on a theme animal and they have colorfully painted creatures of all kinds. My hometown has painted horses all over. Erie, Pennsylvania has frogs as their theme.
That’s really cool. My hubby’s family is from Cohoes, NY but we haven’t been up there in years
It’s like the pigs in Seattle!
I just had an idea. If so many cities and towns in the United States are doing this, it might be a fun wordless Wednesday to have everyone post a picture of one of the painted sculptures from their town.
I like that idea! We have painted utility boxes around town. I think that’s what they are.
I’m going to mention that and see how many people would be interested
Wow, Phil, this is one huge and awesome squirrel.
My friend will love this – she’s a huge Van Gogh fan. But it’s not just the States – my home town of Hull, UK has had toads and more recently, moths (to celebrate the poet Phillip Larkin and aviator Amy Johnson). And, although it’s not an animal, I know Steve from Talk About Pop Music has decorated anchors up in his part of Scotland 🙂
I think I will try to start something where on one particular Wednesday we all post pictures of the painted statues of things in our talons
I am meant towns not talons
I’m dictating to my phone and it keeps getting it wrong and I’m not proofreading.
Haha… or you could also have a nail art week and people could show off their actual talons! 😉
I’m sure that would be more popular than my idea, but I’d have nothing to show off myself
The statue of this squirrel is so much more beautiful than the big egg that is erected near my home town. I don’t understand big eggs at all.
Who does understand big eggs?
Are you making fun of the metric system? Because 5 ft is about 1.5 meters.
Of course not! I was trying to make sure all my Canadian and European friends understood the height. I think I have as many readers from outside the States as I do from within
That’s a 5 foot squirrel! Wowzer – he’s almost as tall as me!
