Copper Cowgirl on the causeway in Victoria BC.wmv

Since 2007, the Copper Cowgirl, has become a very popular attraction for visitors to the inner harbour causeway. Standing silent and motionless atop her copper pedestal, she elicits shrieks of surprise and laughter from her audience when she unexpectedly comes to life and commences into a "wild-west ballet" of robotic movements and friendly gestures, before drawing her copper pistol from her holster for an imaginary shoot-out, after which she slowly winds down to her original statue-like position.
The Copper Cowgirl has also entertained passersby in Melbourne AU, Auckland NZ, London UK, as well as in Vancouver, Canada during the 2010 Olympics.
