      I do also. I always learn something when I go into an art museum, and sometimes I love seeing art in original form.

      This building was the home of Marion McNay, and the courtyard is in the center of the building. Her father had several thousand acres of Oklahoma oil fields, so lack of money was not her problem. This museum is now the major art museum for San Antonio, and has expanded well beyond her home.

    Very nice sculptures. Is that bird on the head of the sculpture in the first shot real or ?

      That bird was very real. Had I gotten any closer, as I wanted to do, it would have flown away.
