The new version

the old version

How lovely to refresh the gull that hangs on our front porch.  We were enchanted by him when we first visited the house and while I am not a huge fan of real gulls, the delightful metal version was a nice touch.  Over the past five years the weather had caused rust and general degradation so it was time to attempt a repainting.  He now glows happily in the autumn light with fresh white, grey, and yellow markings.
