Brass suspender clip with Heron

[steelheadwill]

found this brass clip with image of feeding heron. 1.4" W, 1.5" H
not sure what it is, a sash clip?
Has anyone heard of the heron as a military icon?
Any leads as to history, date or origins would be appreciated!
Good Day & HH, Herbie

The heron seems to be a popular suspender decor. http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.php/topic,302332.0.html
