A mysterious piece of artwork has appeared on the outskirts of a Fenland town, for the fourth time in the space of a month. 

The image was spotted by a passer-by and depicts what appears to be an ostrich spraypainted across two metal boxes. 

The identity of the artist of the artist who created the picture near Hobbs Lott Bridge, just outside of March, remains unknown. 

It comes after multiple Banksy-style pieces appeared in and around Wisbech and the wider Fenland area in May. 

A painting resembling the critically acclaimed artist appeared on the corner of Salters Way, between McDonalds and Tesco. 

The image shows what appears to be a bird with a paper bag covering its head.

Meanwhile, just one day before, a passer-by snapped a picture of a similar piece which appeared on the former premises of a convenience store in Park Road. 

The charming image depicts a Jack Russell Terrier on a lead trying to retrieve a stuffed toy trapped in barbed wire above a building.

And in June 2024, a Banksy-style paint appeared on the A47 between South Brink and Elm Hall. 

The piece depicts a young girl wearing a gas mask and was found by a lorry driver in a lay-by.
