I missed a Mermaid!

There are 2 cleverly inserted Mermaids in a mural at 1036 Main Street, Winnipeg.

I saw the second one tonight for the first time. She was up in the opposite corner from Mermaid Blue.

I did a crop and tried to fix it, but it was not good so I’m not posting it.

I’m so happy I saw this one and shot pics of her. She is so very beautiful!

East of Dufferin Street, south of Queen W. W. is a piece of alley marked by a Goldfish on the corner of a parking lot.

 From the end of the alley, walking back to the Goldfish it looks like:
