La Fete des Fruits et Légumes

Every year they board the fountain up in Place Carnot, Carcassonne and set out a wonderful display of fruit and vegetables. The birds were somewhat confused as to where their supply of water had gone! However, they definitely had there beady eyes on the fruit! I wouldn't like to be the nightwatchman tonight...could be a re-enactment of Hitchcock's 'The Birds'!! Hoping for another hot day tomorrow. At four o clock they sell off all the fruit and vegetables and the proceeds go to cancer research.
A very fruity fountain!



Whose a pretty boy then!





Now where do you think she is going to put them!

I am hoping they are going to take the labels off...spoils the display somewhat!





Oh look!... the fountain has sprung a leek or two!!:-))

Oranges and lemons peel the Bells of St Clements.

Going bananas!



I will let you know tomorrow what the missing fruit is.....strawberries, cherries? I think it will be something that the birds might like and they are not taking any chances! Either that or they ran out of fruit!
Beautiful sculptures of...Artichoke's!!
