| [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Hi all, Happy New Year I'm wondering if someone can help me identofy this Heron. Its small - about 3 cm high and made out of a rubbery type plastic. There are no markings that I can see. It is similar in sizing to the Britaions water birds. Any help would be appreciated as I'm trying to list all my figures , thank you |

| It is very similar to the Clairet pelican. It may be a Clairet copy by one of the French makers. My Clairet pelican: [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] |

| Clairet didn't use rubbery material, so I think it must be a copy. Clairets were often copied. Perhaps one of our French members can enlighten us more. |
