Emma the Community Rail Owl has been created to celebrate GWR (Great Western Railway)’s community rail partnership, which involves local communities in their railway through station adoptions, promotions and educational projects. The owl's design marks the 50th anniversary of the devastating flood which swept through Keynsham in 1968. Famous for its fossil ammonites, the Keynsham ArtSpace owl is inspired by the fragility of the planet we live in and the beauty that can be found in water, nature and the abundant diversity of the metals and ores that our planet is made of.

IsamBIRD Kingdom BrunOWL is the celebration of the famous inventor and engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel. Apart from the characteristic top hat and tailcoat, the owl shows off some of his constructions. Rita, the artist, loves telling stories with her pictures and she has hidden a myriad of animals and mythical creatures all over the owl to make the learning more fun. Can you match all of Isambird's inventions on the ribbon with paintings on the owl? Can you spot the 10 little owls hiding among the famous landmarks?
