On my wildflower trek yesterday I came upon fields with these "rusty" sculptures. Everything from pre-historic creatures to several rows of grape vines and farm workers. I was fascinated. In the middle of a grassy field stood pre-historic elephants, sloths and other creatures. And they weren't all in the same field. They were scattered over large plots in the Borrego Springs countryside. Apparently a local philanthropist owns the land and has commissioned a Mexican artist to create these pieces for everyone to enjoy. It was so wonderful to have such a display of art in a public place for all to enjoy. Well worth the trip.
