Sept 2 : Rhino in the river

Not a real animal, but a lifesize sculpture in a local river. I see him every day on my way to work. Today he has gathered a lot of twigs. At other times he may be clothed with football or rugby shirts from happy supporters who drink in the pub nearby. Christmas time gives someone a chance to put a Santa's hat on him. This rhino gets a lot of attention!
