Incidentally, it's also George Ferris' birthday on the 14th. And what better way to to show quirky love than through that most romantic ride of all--the Ferris Wheel! (Gondolas are romantic too, but not everyone has a chance to go to Venice).
Anyway, just press the button to stop the spinning rides, and the two side-by-side Ferris Wheels produce an unlikely match:
Just some of the quirky animal pairings:
A hippo and a plover (already with their own age-old symbiotic relationship in real life.)
A horse and a tiger (very Biblical. No wait, that's the lion and the lamb, but it's close)
A squirrel and an iguana.
And a fox all by himself, because, well, they're solitary animals.
I guess, Happy Valentine's Day to the happy beast in all of us. :)
Last year's Valentine's, Google's Doodle was this. Which featured at the end, among the other jump rope couples, two tuxedoed gay men. Lovely.

i liked the Rabbit & Dolphin combination in this valentines day doodle
I like the hippo and the bird, just because they managed to overcome size differences. :)
I would have wanted to see more animal pairs since there are 8 seats per Ferris Wheel. So that makes 16. Then again, maybe the other seats are already occupied by couples. :)
