Loggerheads out for the Jubilee

 
Good to see the loggerheads out in full force on the town's high street, alongside Union Jacks, for Shrewsbury's Jubilee bunting decorations. The Queen celebrates her seventieth year on the throne this weekend.

As the ones above are placed inside a chevron, that also associates them with Shropshire loggerheads; by contrast, Shrewsbury loggerheads run free traditionally, i.e. without a chevron shape (as depicted on another set of bunting - see right).
These ones, specially designed for the occasion, do seem surprisingly aggressive though.  The staring eyes! The sharp teeth!
Or, is that just me?
