…I was thinking about the roof topper… (btw - the siding looks good.)
…that might be a suitable roof finial/topper/lightning rod… John & Nick finish off the roof… nice & shiny… looking toward tfl? ~8' tall?
the 'Tin Men'
may need the facial follicle modification, but the heart is still good…
who knew?… Nicholas Chopper

"Jack died of a heart attack on June 6, 1979 in Los Angeles, California at the age of 80. Just a couple of months before his passing, Jack made an appearance at that year's Academy Awards® ceremony with his fellow actor and fellow Bostonian, Ray Bolger who had played the Scarecrow in The Wizard of Oz." he'd have been 120 now - happy to watch over the casita…

… some other possible directions (would need to become smaller, lighter… for roof duty)
a mantis or grasshopper? -
Lands End Sculpture Center
a man & his bug - Scott R. Shaffer
or a fish or chicken…
Harley
Harley II - Lyle Nichols
Rooster

I like remmij's ideas. I also like the scorpion on top of La Kiva which might just work on the casita too... with the tail curled high in the air. LOL. The place looks great John!
