Today's animals from Glasgow's architecture are these dolphinfish supporting a lamp on the Kelvin Way Bridge on the west end of the city.

Today's animal from Glasgow's architecture is this slightly grumpy-looking dolphinfish above the door of the Former Northern Assurance Building at 90 Saint Vincent Street.

Today's animals from Glasgow's architecture as these pair of beautifully carved dolphinfish from 1897 on 42 Jamaica Street in Glasgow City Centre. Sadly, one of them is somewhat worse for wear.

Today's animal from Glasgow's architecture is this rather delightful dolphinfish wrapped round a trident on the keystone over one of the doors to a 1902 tenement on Hunter Street in Calton.
