Urban topiary

I've been down this road countless times but never noticed this until I walked into its nose today.

I love topiary. Some chap on the local news today had grown one into the shape of a man paddling a canoe.

I'm surprised you're the first to ask cos I sure as hell don't know. Bear? Terrier?

Most fearsome.

I reckon it's one of those worm/dragon creatures that got such a hard time from medieval knights?

This has made my day! I love the way it just pops out of the hedge looking at you. Does it bite if you put your hand inside its mouth?

thanks for the comment, Dusty, on my herd of elephants in St James Park, even if they are just "plastic"...Too damn heavy to move the real things on a five month tour! Really that is a steel wire frame, hand bent and welded, and the herd of 13 took seven weeks for me to create on behalf of ElephantFamily.org, to raise monies for projects saving the Real elephants, OK??? Take a look at the REAL topiaries on my website, www.topiaryjoe.com
The dog-hedge is Great! When you bumped in to its nose did you notice if it was cold and wet?
