I love this animal sculpture on the former Whiteinch Public Baths in Glasgow. It's one of a pair surrounding the city's coat of arms, and I presume it's an otter or a seal. The whiskers are especially good.

I've always found the cottage on the right of this image rather interesting. It's on Mitre Road, just north of Victoria Park in the west of Glasgow and it's different in style and age from all the other houses which surround it.
