Post by: bat20 on December 29, 2021, 06:21:17 PM

Hi , this weight only cost a few pounds because of it’s bumps and chips it’s accumulated over the years,plus being in the sun sometime during the same period , but it’s lovely and it’s alstaying with me for the foreseeable .One question , two  of the canes looks like a black eagle ? Possible or not ? Thanks

 :) I can see a sort of angel @ nearly 6 o'clock at the bottom, but I suspect a likeness to any particular thing might just be a cane being a bit squashed and uneven.
Our brains tend to lie to us, creating images where none actually are. Which is why we end up getting photos of slices of jesus on toast doing the rounds.  ;D
