The sun was rising and it was snowing lightly when I walked by this Canada goose sculpture in Bend, Oregon.
Here’s what it looks like with a bit more snow.
This life-size bronze sculpture is by artist Peter Helzer. “River Geese” is part of the Art in Public Places initiative in Bend.
There are plenty of real life Canada geese in this neighborhood to keep the artwork company. The Deschutes River, and the Bend Whitewater Park, is directly behind this sculpture.

Looking forward to finding these little nuggets everywhere :-)
As you'll soon find out, there's lot of outdoor art here. :D
I love it. I am kicking around the idea of opening a SMALL art gallery somewhere in town. Just a flicker of an idea though.
Cool!
These are great. How do the real one's feel about the statues. Seems like there's a children's book in that idea. Thanks for joining!
The real ones must be confused by them. ;)
