This 38 ft. tall mural can be easily seen by anyone driving on Rt. 66 through El Reno. The former drive-in is on the north side of Rt. 66/Bus. 40, just northwest of Adams Park. The artist (R.P. Sinnett) used very bright colors to depict the main theme of this mural: a Scissortail Flycatcher (Oklahoma's State Bird). Some of the items painted into the background are orange rays of sun, yellow stalks of wheat, the green earth, and lots of blue swirls representing the sky.
