Lookin for some cool ground wind art.

I wasn't sure where to post this so thought I'd try here. I am looking for some of those cool wind spinning things that are staked to the ground, perferablly but sometimes also seen flying off of poles a kite festivals. I think some may be called 'bols', and there's some called 'f-stop', to give you an idea of what I mean.

I have seem some neat stuff adding to the kite atmosphere at festivals but my local shop doesn't stock anything but kites and conventional windsocks and I haven't had much luck searching through the wares of online stores.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for these types of goodies?

thanks,

Erin

Also, whatever you see on these sites, you can almost undoubtedly order through your local retailer.

Always support your local shops, whenever possible.

Thanks for your suggestions guys. Very helpful.

Our local shop is not able to get that much in with regards to kites because they say they only deal with a few specific companies. Online shopping is a godsend when one has specific interests within a less than mainstream sport.
