- 5.0 Giant Bird Cage (47 reviews)
-Thoughtfully Made Birdcage
Spent < 1 hour Points of Interest & Landmarks
This was more than a bird cage. The swing inside was a nice touch and I love the bible scripture verse inscribed on top of the cage to give a thought to ponder. "Look at the birds of the air; They Do not sow or reap or store away in barns, yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than them? See more..

Points of Interest & Landmarks
You don't wanna exclude the World's Largest Pitchfork while you're touring & marveling at all the other "Big Things" in Casey, IL. It is on a farm not far northeast of downtown adjacent to the parking lot of the Richards Farm Restaurant, so you can gawk & eat in the same detour. At 60 feet long & 1,940 pounds, it is an impressive farm implement that Paul Bunyan would covet - if he ever switched careers. See more..

-A Darn Big Yarn
Saturday: 10:00 AM - 3:00 PM Points of Interest & Landmarks
The Big Knitting Needles have been relocated (and maybe the store did too?) to straddle the interior entrance to The Yard Studio on East Main Street in Casey, IL. Still an impressive artifact among its many giant cousins around town, but more difficult to get a good snapshot in the new location. Still, it makes for an impressive welcome sign to the shop space.
