Big Chrome Bird in Pine Hills

This is a big chrome bird lurking in Atlanta's Pine Hills neighborhood just north of Peachtree Creek. He seems alive, stopping in his tracks to observe me. I'm sure he returned to his business as soon as we left.

I think he has a sense of humor, cracking a smirk for the camera. Few could carry off his avant garde "do," part Mohawk, part mullet.
