They might be herons but they do look like storks too.

Isn't there a way you could get to the area where this is so you can get a closer look?

Such a great catch. Perfect timing. They look like a type of Heron maybe. Was this close to water maybe?

I was really pleased to find out I'd got a photo I could use.

I'm not aware of much water in the area but there easily could be.

A wonderful capture there now..

Thanks. These were on the end of metal poles so at least they couldn't escape any further.

Great capture! They look like herons to me. Were you close to a body of water? They do love water.

They could well be herons. As long as they're not what they call 'bin chickens'.

They look very much like the herons that we see along the waterways and lake shores. Good job catching that image. Drive-by photos are hard!

That is a great photo shot and well captured! They looked more like real birds. May be the sculptor is trying to show the early flight birds who are thought to be the living descendants of Dinosaurs!!

You did well with it, all things considered. Capturing an image while moving, isn't always easy.

I took about six. Vince had slowed down for me but I did get a couple of good shots.

@JudyEv It would be interesting to know more about them. The sculpture is remarkable, for a moment I thought they were real.

@LadyDuck Others thought they were real too. I never thought to mention that they weren't.

It seems strange that they're just stuck out there just off a major highway. Now I'm on a mission to try to find out more about them.
