Cole (2)

   Part of the "Trail Critters" collection of sculptures placed around the rails-to-trails paths in our area. A second photo of Cole.  "Located at Glen Carbon Junction, in Glen Carbon, along the MCT Ronald J. Foster Heritage Trail at Main Street, stands this lively 12-foot-tall hot pink canary. A nod to Glen Carbon’s origins as a coal mining locale, and the significant role canaries played in the practice of coal mining."

Cole is technically along the Heritage Trail, but right at the junction with the Nickel Plate Trail.  I was actually walking the Nickel Plate when I took this photo.
