This sculpture measures about seven feet tall when mounted in the ground. Nylon bushings are used to aid the rotation as it pivots on a pointed 1/2 inch steel bar. The wind element measures about 24 inches high and 24 inches wide and deep. It has 12 birds rotating around a raised double sun that is joined vertically at the middle. A spiral completes the look hanging at the bottom. It is constructed of mild steel which has been age accelerated to achieve a bright rust patina
