Subject: RE: BS: strangest thing youve seen in a field.
On Interstate 81, a highway that goes from the Canadian border south into New York State, just a few miles inside the USA, there are 3 enormous crows standing in a field near a grove of trees. Watch for them on the right as you drive south, just after a big rocky area. You'll see them in the field. They appear to be made of wrought iron or perhaps stone or concrete...they are black, and quite realistic, except for their size. I would estimate each crow is about the size of a Volkswagen or at least an Austin Mini.

It certainly makes you wonder, since this is an empty field with no sign of habitation anywhere in sight, not even a farmhouse. Weird.

As for those cars near Amarillo, they were pictured on the sleeve of a Bruce Springsteen album...I think it was "The River". That's probably where he got the idea for the song "Cadillac Ranch". I suspect Springsteen was conceived in the back of a large American car...he certainly is obsessed with them.
