    DH would love to have one of him peeking out of the wooded area around our house. Your location is perfect for any real sightings!

    Love it! The best crime preventing tip came from my grandmother. She lived in the foothills, in an area that was full of druggies. She put up a hand painted sign she made that stated: "I don't shoot to kill, but I WILL make a hen out of a rooster!!" -- I heard from a number of people over the years that may not have known her, but would bring up the verbiage on the sign when they placed where her property was in their mind. That, and the fact that she carried a shotgun when down in her meadow mowing or checking out the property, both of which kept her pretty safe!

    We haven't seen any of his relatives yet. But we are hopeful.

    Just curious ... how much does he weigh?

    I'm guessing he's solid bronze, about 3.5' tall.

    Wow!!

    He actually is very light, weighs about 12 lbs and is 29" tall. He is made from a resin substance.
