Wetlands Park Art Show

Have been managing to get out to walk again. Still somewhat hit and miss but trying. Tomorrow is a walking day but have to take the Jeep to the shop. The window in the back seat decided to drop down into the door and won't come back up. 

Woke up the other morning to fog in the Wetlands. Haven't seen that before.  Started out as just a thin strip.

Then bloomed into complete fog. 

Cleared up in time for us to walk at 9:30 though. We first went to the Nature Center as we've earned our first reward for walking for the year. After five walks we got a nice button to put on our hats. Also discovered this years Art show was beginning at 10 o'clock. So we walked over to see it. It is called HAVEN this year. "Ten artists have been selected for HAVEN, our fourth annual temporary outdoor art installation! Sculptures will be displayed at the Nature Preserve from March 15 to May 15, 2025. Look out for the exhibit while you’re walking the trails at Wetlands Park!"

The first sculpture we saw. No idea what the message is. But it was colorful. 

The next one got first prize. It is called HAVEN

I leave it to you to figure it out. This one will remain on permanent display somewhere in the park.

No title for this one. 

But I kind of like it. It was three dimensional. And at least it looked like something. The snake finding HAVEN in the rocks and desert - maybe?

Hard to read this - Cranes of Sanctuary. 

Now that really looks like a sculpture. Like it. 

Another no title, wonder why.

Another one we really liked. It is a dragonfly made of a heavy twine or rope. Hard to see in the picture as it blends with the background. Very interesting though.

Just a different view. 

Guess I didn't see the info for this one. 

This says Branches of Life. 

Okay - it is pretty and colorful. 

Nesting...

Rather strange. 

I would of thought this one wouldn't be hard to name. 

I really like it. Using the natural setting to add dimension to it.  Colorful too. 

Okay, title makes sense. 

Also neat to look at. There are hummingbirds in the park. 

After leaving the art show we continued to walk. Got in 3.2 miles. First time this year we've seen Canadian Geese here. Usually there are two or three pairs for the whole winter. 

Keeping it short this time. Hope you enjoyed.
