CD Whirligigs

There are many types of lawn ornaments which are often animalistic sculptures with at least one rotating member often designed to appear as a body part of the sculpture.

'Spinners' usually shaped like flowers with petals that spin in the wind. Variations include birds or insects with spinning wings.

'Jigglers' are plastic or metal flowers, birds and insects fitted on spring loaded stakes so that they jiggle when the wind blows on them.
