Continuing the bird theme, these two carved owls are in Rowntrees Park, overlooking the childrens play area. Not sure what the children make of them but I think they look rather scary! I can't decide if they were carved with those two sinister looking holes or if the local woodpeckers have been at work.
This mosaic map of Rowntree Park makes a colouful addition to one of the walls within the Park. Artist Dawn Sharkey worked with a variety of community groups during 2009 on a project called 'Mapping the Park'. After trying out a number of different art techniques they produced this mosaic piece celebrating their memories and feelings about Rowntree Park.
