Rathfarnham has a new celebrity in the shape of a young heron - only this bird is more interested in the roads than the river.
The cheeky young Dodder resident has been making waves in the south Dublin suburb, regulary holding up traffic, posing for selfies and generally being one hell of a cool-dude heron.
Unfazed and unbowed, the long-legged grey heron doesn't move for anyone, as talented visual storyteller Jimmy Cahill has documented several times on the excellent Dodder Photography Facebook page.
In fact, it's fair to say that this beaky young birdy doesn't have a Dodder in the world.

The as-yet unnamed attention seeking grey heron has come to the attention of Dublin Live before.
Earlier in the summer we told how locals were warned not to pose with the chilled out fisher king for selfies in case he stabbed them in the eye with his sharp, long beak.
Herons have been known to mistake people's eyes for fish, and the outcome isn't pretty.
Fortunately, that hasn't happened in Rathfarnham, but locals know to give the young feather-brained poser a wide berth.
In fact, it seems they've learned how to live with each other along the Lower Dodder Road.
The only person who probably isn't happy is the local traffic warden, because this juvenile heron could be doing him or her out of a job!
