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.
