Eaton Centre, Toronto, #9

Eaton Centre, Toronto, #9
Toronto Eaton Centre is a shopping mall in downtown Toronto that is a major tourist attraction.

A highlight of the Centre is the sculpture Flight Stop by Michael Snow, which consists of 60 Canada geese appearing to make a landing. Each goose was made by wrapping a composite photograph of a goose around a core of fibreglass over styrofoam. For more information about the sculpture click the PiP at top left.

And as things turned out, you're exactly right, Denis. Their creator had to protect them from being infantilized.

Fascinating John here the geese all fly over to warmer places, in spring they all come back and find their nest again, curious how well they can remember where their nest is located
Enjoy your great week there in the sun

Thanks, Sonia. The geese from farther north fly over us, too. I consider those big Vs up in the sky spectacular. Many also summer here. In Toronto they seem to have established a right of residency at the racetrack. They're even allowed to cross the track during races.
