HAPPY 4TH OF JULY, 2014 !!!
From now until September 7, 2014, Lego Art “Nature Connects” is on display in the Climatron at Mo Bot. in St. Louis, Missouri. Guaranteed to be enjoyed by kids and adults of all ages! There are 12 displays and here are my favorites:
Of course, being a bird watcher, I love this Pileated Woodpecker. It’s made with 4424 Legos.
This is just a partial caption of “Feeding the Birds or the Squirrels?” which took 8586 Legos to make.
Mama and Baby Lego Ducks are so cute !
Now onto the bugs…….. This Monarch Butterfly is feasting on milkweed, a much needed nutritional plant for them to make the long journey to Mexico for the winter. You can help the Monarchs by planting milkweed in your yard. This display used 60,549 Legos.
Did you know that the Praying Mantis can eat frogs, lizards and even hummingbirds? No wonder I didn’t like these creeping looking bugs! 42,167 Legos were used in this display.
This Milk Snake is after it’s favorite mouse snack here. 12,069 Legos used to create this slitherly image that I hope I never see in my garden. : )
This would look great in any garden ! 27,869 Legos were needed to make the Sundial and Bluebird.
Our applause to the artist – Sean Kenney !!!
But Wait! By the time I was finished seeing the Lego Art, it was raining buckets outside!!!! So I photographed some of the plants and flowers that make me smile. Proof that Mother Nature has a sense of humor:
Lastly these Climatron residents wanted to be included also.
Thanks for reading!
