mudbeast Among an interesting mix of rare and ornamental trees in Bute Park, Wales, this mud beast was spotted. Maybe this mud mound is a warthog? Whatever this mud and grass sculpture is supposed to represent, it's weird, wild, and somehow still wonderful.

After the show, this sculpture was purchased by Olivia Harrison, widow of George Harrison, and now has a permanent home in a large Victorian garden at Harrison House in Henley-on-Thames, UK.
