How many owls do you see? Two. That’s right. We’re standing before the Owls sculpture. This isn’t just any owl sculpture. These are by artist Frank Evans. He created them in 1974. They’re carved into tree stumps. They’re not small either. They’re substantial pieces. The owls are perched majestically on their perches. They seem to be watching us. They’re part of the Seattle landscape. They’ve been here for decades quietly observing the city’s evolution. One can almost imagine them whispering secrets from their silent watch. The owls watch. They’ve seen it all. They’ve witnessed changes in the city around them. They are silent sentinels. They guard the area. They’ve seen countless faces pass by. Each face a different story. Each story adding to the rich tapestry of Seattle’s history. These owls are more than just art. They are a symbol of the city’s enduring spirit. A reminder of the beauty that can be found in the simplest of things. The Owls. Seattle’s enduring guardians. They remain here. A testament to the creativity and vision of Frank Evans. A silent observer of the ever-changing Seattle landscape. They watch. They wait. And they remain.
