Take Three Thursday - Swinging High

In an effort to notice more of the ordinary in my life, I have decided to share what I have noticed this week in Take Three Thursday.  The idea is to take photos that are linked some how; by theme, by colour, by date, by moment,  by points of view. There is no formal link in but please feel free to join in. Last week I entitled my post as Take Notice Thursday, which was more by accident than design.  I liked it, it felt like it was more inclusive.  What do you think?

What have you noticed this week?  Have a peek at what others have found this week:
 Maggie at FarmersWifeDayByDay  
 Karen's Random Reflections

This week what I noticed was, we have some up the street neighbours that could have what some describe as a sense of humour or a wild sense of garden design.  They had a large pine that for some reason them decided to de-branch entirely but leave the main branches & trunk.   I'll let you decide if you think it's humour or garden design.  Mr Man does not think it's funny or good garden design.  The rest of their garden is quite lovely, very well kept.  My question is, will they replace Tweety with an Elf On the Swing at Christmas?

    Well, I got a chuckle from this, but I wouldn't want Tweety in my garden.

      No Tweety isn't something I'd want in the garden but every time I walk by him, I admit to chuckling. He really is quite large - maybe 3 feet high.

    It's funny but also...weird. If they wanted/needed the tree down for some reason fair enough, but I can't imagine what purpose that bare hulk will serve going forward!

      I agree to the weird & now after a week of his being there, I'm not chuckling anymore. The tree is just ugly now ...

    Tweety has always been a favorite and I love seeing him in this garden!

      Tweety in the cartoons is a cutie for sure, I'm trying to keep that idea of fun every time I pass this one.

    Hmmm. We have an old swing in our garden. Perhaps he could hang in that. I vote for a Father Christmas swinging from his sleigh....

      Oh now Father Christmas in a sleigh is an excellent idea ... I would vote for that one.

      I'm all for fun, but lately I get the feeling that this Tweety's eyes follow me as I walk up or down this street ... I think I saw sunglasses that would fit - I just may have to buy this guy a pair!
