St Francis is a favorite of many gardeners, and is one of the most popular figures for a garden statue. His association with the poor and animals makes him a natural for part of your backyard decor. You can find statues with St Francis sitting, often feeding the animals (in fact St Francis bird feeders are a often statues with a basin for bird feed.) You can find him standing with other small animals. Finally there are the contemplative poses showing St Francis in prayer.
Garden statues are a popular addition to almost any backyard or garden. You can find them in all sorts or sizes and prices, and the variety of models is impressive. One of the more common themes are the religious statues, be it the traditional Christian images like St Francis or angels, to the eastern theme of a Buddha. Garden creatures are also a favorite, with critters like frogs, dogs, sleeping cats (is there another type?) or even roosters. Check out these selections from several merchants to find one you like.
