If I leave my house and head east, in about ten minutes of walking I come to the grounds of Sydney University. It’s a pretty big campus, but the best part by far is the old building that makes up the original uni.
It’s decorated with hundreds of stone gargoyles. I’ve photographed many of them, and I thought I might post a few of them here for you to see from time to time.

Ah, yes, Joey, sometimes it would be so much easier.

Stone? Or rubber? Can’t tell without giving him a squeeze.
That’s my dog . . . when a much smaller dog approaches.
Nifty. I like gargoyles.
