I've been wanting a pair of cranes every since I started gardening 15 years ago.  The life-scale models I saw first were far too expensive.  These are big enough to have a presence up near my house when seen from the street, which is what I wanted.  They appear to be well made, and everyone who sees them compliments me.  A long nail at the base attaches them relatively firmly so they won't fly away--or blow over.  My next garden improvement will be a water feature.
