Very nice!
Will something climb up the windmill? It looks like a great place for something to climb on!

I like your poppies, but I also like the bird bath. Do you get many birds coming in for a visit? I also was curious to know if you'll have anything climb the windmill?

I don't have many birds bathing as to many cats around here.I wont have a climber on my windmill as it would block the blade from turning.I had plants that grew to the top of it just before the blade.I wish you all had some of my poppies as the color is awesome.

I love those Poppies too Glenda. It's a shame the blooms don't last longer.
Btw,we have 2 of the very same birdbaths at work!
