SECRET OWLS

When these owls were carved from stumps in the old cemetery across the road they were noticeable landmarks, being bright and light new wood. I thought they were bound to be vandalised as the cemetery is a favoured hangout for vagrants and semi-delinquent yoof. But I was wrong, I'm glad to say, and several years later the owls are still there, but weathered and hiding among new shoots. Now you have to know where to look, or else to come upon them unexpectedly.
