Eric Robinson staff and their families with Eric the Owl at Itchen Valley Country Park.
Staff from a Hampshire legal firm celebrated summer with a barbecue.
Legal practice Eric Robinson Solicitors gathered at Itchen Valley Country Park for the firm’s annual barbecue.
And among the guests to entertain the children was the firm’s mascot - the seven foot, bright blue Eric the Owl Company managing partner Catherine Maxfield said: “With six branches across Southampton, it is important to have events like this that bring everyone together.
“We wanted to do it before the schools broke up and people started taking their summer holidays. It was a great party and the kids absolutely adored Eric.”
