Belconnen's favorite penis shaped owl!

Look closely! Do you see it? It's probably not what Bruce Armstrong intended when designing his owl tribute for Belconnen but this sculpture, one of Canberra's most prominent BIG Things, has been nicknamed 'The Penis Owl' It's simply titled 'Owl' though and it was created in 2011 based off the Australian Powerful Owl Ninox Strenua. The BIG owl is positioned in the middle of a median strip on the Corner of Belconnen Way & Benjamin Way. Parking's a bit rough for this area so I'd strongly suggest parking at 6 Ware Pl, Belconnen. It's a 30 second walk to the sculpture and a safe place to park.

Fergus the Bull

Fergus the Bull So Fergus the bull doesn't have a physical address. He's found at a rest stop on the Forrest Highway between Millbridge and Eaton in Western Australia. You'll either need these Co-ordinates: -33.31494, 115.73681 OR you can load up my map , click the icon for Fergus the Bull and Google navigate your way there. (easier) Fergus the Bull is a sculpture by Russell Sheridan. Creator of ' Timothee Vasse ' and ' The Stick' He's not a BIG Thing, I really wouldn't know what to call him. It's a bull holding a chalice while striking a thinking pose. It's an extremely quirky sculpture

Warwick Farm and its Harbor Bridge

Sometimes we visit a BIG Thing and never really ask ourselves where it comes from. We just visit, snap a photo and appreciate what it is. Curiosity always gets the better of me. I enjoy learning about what I visit and finding the who's, the what's and more importantly, the why's. Wikipedia tells me the Mini Harbor Bridge located in Warwick Farm was constructed in 1987. (My Birth year) 55 years after the opening of the Sydney Harbor Bridge itself. It was constructed by the apprentices of the Royal Australian Navy and assembled on field during the 1987 Manly Vs. Canberra NRL grand final game as part of the on field entertainment. I was lucky in finding a youtube clip where it features the snippet of the game where it briefly features the on game construction of the bridge. Enjoy the video. If you watch closely you can make out banners promoting icons from other states It was this game Peter Warren, the owner of Peter Warren Automotive, saw Sydney's tribute ''T
