Default lawn ornament

Does anyone know where I can find a Blue Heron lawn ornament. They have special meaning for me... but I don't know where to look for them. Thanks

Before you put it in your front yard be sure to check your deed restrictions. Unfortunately, lawn ornaments are not allowed in most of TV anymore.

I don't consider that unfortunate.

My wife had two small bird statues in the back yard sitting in an island of bushes. We were told to remove them because someone complained. We live in Buttonwood. Our front yard faces Redfish golf course and back faces Triggerfish. We're they wrong for making us revolve the birds?

Has something changed? I still got my 8 plastic pink flamingos that stand 5 feet tall that I want in my front yard. Have the rules changed? Can I do it? They really look good, honest.

I think the restrictions are according to where you live. Probably north of 466, you might be grandfathered in. I'm sure the issue is about hurricanes etc, that blow these into peoples yards and thru windows etc. Thats probably why they don't want garbage pails here too. If it was me, I'd try anyway to put a lawn ornament on property. All they can do is tell you to take it down.

Actually the rules have changed now that covenant enforcement is complaint driven...so...if no one complains you can have your flamingos.

Take a ride around parts of Hemingway and you will see all manner of birds, gnomes, fairies and the like. Also saw some interesting ornaments while driving through some of the newer sections.

No problem! There are no restrictions when you're living in a little shanty deep inside the Ocala Forest.

Check out floridadancingbirds.com. We have two pink flamingos in our back yard. They are so relaxing to watch, not to mention fun. They have blue heron, too, along with other birds. Enjoy!
