The Old Water Tower in Eden Park

There is a type of fishing in Japan where the fisherman wraps the throat of a duck with a string so it can't swallow the fish it catches in it's mouth.  The fisherman grabs the fish from the duck's mouth and tosses it in a large woven basket. 

This bronze sculpture was given to Cincinnati many years ago.  I can't remember what the type of fishing is called or the date when the gift was given.

Our neighbor boy is convinced this is a woman rather than a man because of the skirt he is wearing.  I saw a doctumentary on Discovery that showed the history of this style of fishing, and the fisherman was wearing a skirt like this one.  The neighbor boy doesn't care about that....it's still a woman to him!
