Lions Everywhere--
 

Since the Aglaia is putting in lion sitings...
Oshkosh would be the place to be, this entire summer lions have been all over the city for a project called Pride of Oshkosh...

I'm sending the aglaia my photos that i took this summer :)

Those were all beautiful!!

I haven't seen that many lions in Miami ever, here they have similar things in parts of towns that are roosters...not as much fun.. i think they did it as part of a "historic miami" thing..a VERY long time ago..but there are still some roosters around.
miami is very big though so its not like everywhere you go you see a rooster

Thanks for the beautiful pics PhiStar :)

Those are so cute and creative. Around here we had Pelicans on Parade and where my husband went to school there were Gators on the Go. One of my favorite Haloween costumes ever was a guy who made himself into a KA Gator when the city had just started to project.

i love those lions!

it reminds me of the year cincinnati had painted pig statues on every corner of the city...cute but I like lions soooo much better
