Totally agree: it's a southern object and its not the statue of Liberty. The lower half of the right hand side is a dancing Hereford cow, complete with shaggy forelocks. The dark figure sadly mistaken for the statue of liberty is something along the lines of a black panther, sitting on top of the Hereford.

And then there's the covered wagon hoops. toward the very top. The statue of Liberty definitely doesn't have them.

Thanks for your very kind words Mike

While I can see the obvious fish swimming towards me, I udderly cannot see the dancing bovine. Is she about to go "tits-up" ?

As for the black panther...I just don't know...and you can't be too careful these days, given the fate of the hot air balloon named Back Magic over Canberra skies...a happy smiley face on black Nomex and Nylon was clearly racist and offensive.

Seeing a Black panther...well...I suspect the PC police be 'aknocking soon enough if we go with that moniker

The wagon hoops I'll give you...they are plain as day...but I suspect these are rare birds south of the equator as well..and as for what the Cheyenne might make of a "Wagon Hoop" Nebula ...well best not go there....
