We installed this into the garden this morning and it works really well even in a light breeze. Our only concern is that it might scare away the smaller garden birds so we will need to keep an eye on this.

Jane takes real delight in garden sculptures and always has an eye out for something different. We already have a number of steel and wooden mushrooms so it looks as though this may be part of a growing collection.
