Many thanks Sarah, the surrounding area grows large quantities of withy (local name for willow) so wicker sculptures are quite plentiful in the county.

Fabulous B&W which enhances this artwork ( at first I thought it was a real bird!:-) so amazingly seen and caught in a field so preciously detailed in the foreground and blurred in the background
Have a good evening Roger!

I've seen this sort of thing before, but I've never managed to get a photo of one I liked. I find it difficult to separate them from the background.............but you've managed it superbly Roger. Maybe B/W is the way to go! Excellent shot sir!
