Why Pam The Bird Is Taking Over Melbourne

Pam the Bird has struck many iconic Melbourne locations over the years, but it now has been painted on the Cheese Stick over the toll road to the airport, raising the question: who did it, and how did they get up there?

Lol at the dude saying he doesn't like ppl doing it without permission.. thats exactly what Graffiti is

[@MrX-X-X]

Exactly! Make it legal and it's not graffiti anymore, it's just graffiti styled art or whatever.

[@fourwornsoles]

Im more amazed that the project is still a thing...

[@oldmanMikehere]

So glad our corporate overlords used our lean police resources to catch this man making cute, tourist friendly artwork. Meanwhile, Chapel street is so dangerous i wont walk down it anymore.

UPDATE 02:00am 31-01-2025 Man charged re Pam the Bird graffiti: Members of Victoria Police's Transit Divisional Response Unit have charged a man over a series of ‘Pam the Bird’ images graffitied on city landmarks. The 21-year-old man, from Yarraville, was arrested on 30th January. He is facing more than 50 charges including criminal damage, burglary, shop theft and theft of a motor vehicle. In one of the most high-profile incidents, it’s alleged the man scaled and defaced the heritage listed Flinders Street Railway Station clock tower on 10 July 2024. It's alleged he is also responsible for graffiti plastered across the rail network as well as the 'Cheese Stick' column on CityLink, a television station building in Docklands and concrete silos on Mercer Street in Geelong. In the latest incident graffiti was on 20 January 2025 daubed across a hotel in South Wharf. The total damage of the offending is estimated at more than $100,000. The man has also been charged over an incident in Footscray where an allegedly stolen car was driven through the front window of a Barkly Street restaurant early on 20 December 2024. Police executed search warrants on 30 January at addresses in Yarraville and Abbotsford. Numerous items were seized including spray paint, illegal fireworks, abseiling equipment and property suspected to be the proceeds of crime. As part of their investigations police also arrested a 39-year-old man from Abbotsford. He has been charged with more than 20 criminal damage offences relating to the graffiti of suburban trains and the Docklands office building. Both men have been remanded to appear at Melbourne Magistrates' Court on 31st January, 2025.
