birds | flying | sculpture Some of us when kids dreamed of flying. The guys would think they were Superman, or an airplane and make noise, or just float. The girls thought they had butterfly wings or were a fairy. For me I would put on my WW II flying goggles, as I got ready to step off of a ledge (usually a curb) I would get my feathers.............and dream on. 54" High and 50" to the wingtips. From 18 gage sheet metal.
 Good job Warren Those were

Excellent
Hi Warren,
You turned a dream into a wonderful sculpture.I love that smile! Immediately I was soaring off our swing again. I swung until I started to go around the top of the swing, then leaped into a graceful swan position. All went well until I did the proverbial belly landing. It was sweat until then. No repeat performances though.Thanks for awakening a childhood adventure, and for sharing.
