whimsical man
Lester Solomon was a contemporary of E.T. who shared similar views about preserving the local wooded areas. This statue was one of the last statues built by E.T. and is the leftmost statue in the previous post.
There is a bit of a whimsical quality about the facial expression which is why I labeled it the whimsical man.
