Butchart Gardens - 12 days of Christmas

A partridge in a pear tree No one could find this one the first year so they added pears to the tree. Two turtle doves 3 French hens. The Eiffel Tower isn't very clear though. Sorry about that. 4 Calling birds
5 gold rings 6 Geese a laying. And there are 6 there. There are two at the top, far left, one is lying down. Believe me. 7 Swans a swimmin' 8 maids a milkin' 9 ladies dancing
Not only does the carousel turn but each of the ladies turns on her spot 10 lords a leapin' There is a sequence to it but it's a long one 11 pipers piping, couldn't get them all in one pic though so you're either going to have to believe me or count them :-)
Two of the pipers close up, there is actually music being played and the mannequins are animated 12 drummers drumming. There are 12 arches but they curve round and it's impossible to get a photo of them all. They are actually drumming too.
