So pretty, except to the owner, probably, because he/she needs to replace it!

This doesn't look very safe.... Have the owls or other birds taken refuge in there???? However, you caught the lines rustiness and texture beautifully.

@jennwithtwons @cejaanderson @aglennc The hole is only about 2 inches in diameter. There is another one, about the same size, maybe 12 inches above this one.
The owner's lack of upkeep on this wash facility has provided me with 3 or 4 photo opportunities in the last year.
Don't know about owls, but there are 2 grackles (crows?) that hang out there all day. Every time I walk past it they are cawwing at me. Same 2 birds.

@luvmynynix It is part of a auto wash that operates every day.
