Tucked into the rubbish bay of one of the backpackers hostels that dominate the Kings Cross strip now, I spotted this intriguing character.

Tan with thick black outline, and winking or possibly peeking out of the corner of an eye.

I kept walking up Barncleuth Lane until I saw this.

A little more colourful, still winking, this one’s on the wall of the Cross Bay Gallery.
