It appears that one of Birmingham's most famous statues - the Bullring bull - is getting into the Diamond Jubilee spirit by wearing a union flag costume to mark the historic event.
The 7ft 3in bronze statue, which has become the 'face' of Birmingham's Bullring shopping centre, surprised shoppers today with the makeover.
Designed by professional costume designer Nicola Teale, the bull will be adorned in the outfit right through the summer for both the Queen's Diamond Jubilee celebrations and the impending Olympics.
A very patriotic bull indeed...!
