smiling scarecrows...

....at the garden centre

today's moments of happiness:
a) reversing my car efficiently into the most awkward and only vacant space in the swimming pool car park (little things!)
b) listening to Carla Bruni on CD en route to and from the pool
c) looking forward to that siesta I'm now going to have

[Sherrill]

oh wow these are great

@winshez

I thought of buying one on the pretext that it was for Jinks......

[Beryl Lloyd]

@quietpurplehaze Like your excuse !! & they are charming !

[🐓 Patricia Fletcher]

Fantastic double scarecrow portrait! (must get that CB CD!)

[Malc Bird]

These are great, I've not seen them in Garden Centres and was thinking of making some for our veg patch :)

[Rohini Gupta]

They are so cute do they really scare the birds??

[Hazel]

@tishpics

Oh yes - I have 3 of hers - this one is in English with lyrics taken from famous poems - intriguing. Good to sing along with when some male is nearly in your boot!

@writingdays

I would somehow imagine that they are more decorative than functional! I thought of you this morning when I did my T'ai Chi and wondered what time of day you do your practice.

[Judith Greenwood]

Perfect day! I wonder in Chelsea let these in?!

[Mary]

They look more friendly and inviting than scary. LOL

[Sian B]

Amazing and so friendly looking!

[Pyrrhula]

Cute and funny dolls and a lovely capture of it.
My first moment of happiness to day:
I woke up this morning and she was still by my side .
Second : a big splash of cold water into my face.
Third: my first cup of coffee.

@pyrrhula

[Rosie Kind]

I love these scarecrows with their smiley faces

[Ivan]

Happy faces - happy moments!

[Pyrrhula]

@quietpurplehaze The best way to know life is to love many things

[Hazel A]

Lovely fun shot

[Sheila G]

They are so jolly...great find and capture

[Hazel]

@tishpics p.s. I think the best of hers is 'comme si de rien n'était' which has a tribute to her brother (salut marin).

[Hazel]

@pyrrhula

Agree, as many as possible!

[Paula W]

These look great fun and so cheery too.

@ivan @quietpurplehaze Thank you for you frank critical, I appreciate this very much. My replay ; you make me smile. I`ve taken this pic. in Antwerp`s on one of the main and crowded shopping street . This was a corridor between two shops . Many shops use those places for selling/as a part of the shop
I did have to take my time to get the empty pic. Tree feet`s behind me the shopping people was passing by.
I`ve warn you before, my pic.`s lies

@pyrrhula

I think all photos lie to a certain extent. Estate agents in particular know how to make photos tell an 'embellished' tale!!

[Pyrrhula]

@quietpurplehaze I need the second and the third to become to know I`m not dreaming the first

[Gemma]

Their really cute!
