PAM AT FLINDERS STREET STATION
Ground zero. The Flinders/Swanston corner is the single most photographed Pam sighting in the city — the bird has run the hoardings on the Elizabeth Street side, the rail-corridor parapets behind Platform 10, and the sub-station doors under the viaduct. Stand under the clocks, look east along the tracks: there is always at least one Pam staring back.
THE PLACE
The dome, the ochre brick and the row of clocks — the busiest suburban station in the southern hemisphere and the spot every Melburnian means when they say "meet me under the clocks".
It's also the middle of Pam country: the laneways and rail corridors radiating out from here carry more of the bird than anywhere else in the city.
