The Eagle Has Landed

I've been borrowing classic 70's chinese Shaw Brothers martial arts DVDs from the public library and catching up on all these nostalgic yet crappy movies from my childhood. Didn't know better when we were growing up watching them in the cinema but now realising how bad the movies were made but yet I could not look away! I love watching crappy Shaw Brothers martial arts movies! Maybe I'll blog about them when I've finish watching them so in the mean time, no time to blog but enjoy this Eagle from Docklands.


This 25 metre high sculpture by Bruce Armstrong sits on the southern entry of Docklands. It is made of timber, aluminium and glass. The Eagle was inspired by Bunjil, the spirit creator of the Kulin nation and it keeps a watchful eye over the Docklands development.
