Snowman number 4 on the trail is at the end of the path between the Detroit Bridge and The Quays. Kim Hubball's design is based on the verse "Four Calling Birds" from the song "The Twelve Days of Christmas". In her design, she has focussed on the birds themselves and painted them as large as possible to wrap around the snowman's body. The design is a contemporary take on Scandinavian folk art illustration using bold colours and geometric patterns.
