The children can't resist interaction with this statue on Poole Quay.
Wonderful to see.
Taken from the Brownsea Island ferry while waiting for departure on my afternoon out this week.
There is an old article about this Here

How cool! I checked out the link, and then looked up the Wiki on Boy Scouts of America. Fascinating!

Great shots and a must zoom. If you get a chance have a peep at Julz1972's post today - something that will interest you!!

Adorable interaction! You can almost hear the little one asking questions, etc.!

Made me chuckle!!

Such stoic resolve. But then, what else would you expect from the world's first boy scout. A wonderful series of images.

Very interesting shots! :)

This is so cute!

Nice to see they are allowed to climb on him.

Urchins will be urchins, but I'm surprised that such an activity is tolerated in the UK, with its reputation of high protocol and propriety. The grand Boy Scout innovator must be spinning in his grave.

Lord Baden-Powell seems singularly unimpressed...it's fun to see kids interacting with public statuary. Great series of captures!

love these shots!! (only statue I recall in Poole was in the middle of some shopping mall but perhaps this wasn't there yet... in the 80s ;-))

HA! These are wonderful shots, Andrea. I bet the boy had a cosy time with the statue :)

Excellent, we had one of Doctor Salter in the river walk grounds of Rotherhithe by the Thames, but it sadly went the way of the thief. We are also losing war memorial plaques here too. Disgusting filthy people with little or no respect for themselves let alone our men and woman that died for them. scummy low lives! Wonderful image!

I can't explain about boys and things that need to be climbed. I was a climber and so were my sons. A lovely montage and actually, I like all four photos!
