Superb owl painted on a Tour de France road 🤭

A little out of the subject for this community, but I thought it might make a few people smile here.

The Tour de France employs “dick erasers” (not the official job title) who quickly cover political messages and obscene drawings on the road so that they don’t get aired on TV when the cyclists arrive. With their paint rollers, they often try to turn the penises into things resembling animals like butterflies, rabbits and owls. I’m guessing they chose owls in particular because their big eyes are convenient in this case. Obviously, the workers have very little time to do their job, so they can’t make very lifelike drawings.

If you want to see how it’s done, here’s the 2 minute video I took the screenshot from (French with Dutch subtitles).
