My Favorite Things: The Stone Carvings at the Bethesda Fountain

Although I’ve walked to the Bethesda Fountain in New York’s Central Park many times, it was only this past Monday that I really stopped to look at the carvings that decorate the stone fences and stairways.  Here’s what I saw:

A forest with singing birds…

Butterflies…

A Deer…

A bird guarding its eggs…

A book…

Birds in the trees…

A bird flying with a broken wing…

A tiny house in a keyhole…

(This bird even left droppings!)

And, an owl and a bat.
