Image source, PA MediaProtesters objecting to the HS2 rail link have daubed the front of the Department of Transport with pink paint.
Activists from the group Burning Pink claimed on social media that two members had "sent a message of love for our world and disdain at the corporate killing machine".
Police were stationed near the building on Wednesday morning where paint had been thrown over the door, windows, walls and pavement.
Burning Pink said it was "disgusted by the Department of Transport and their complicity in the demise of what little we have left in the way of nature and beauty".
It follows recent protest action that saw anti-HS2 activists dig and inhabit tunnels outside Euston station in a bid to protect gardens at the front of the rail hub.

Local Democracy Reporting ServiceThe number of patients catching Covid at two hospitals in east London spiked in December because on-site tests were not catching the new variant.
The Barking, Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust (BHRUT) suggests outbreaks increased sharply since November because on-site Covid tests were “not fully sensitive to the newly identified variant strain”.
During December, the new UK variant of the Covid virus was thought to be responsible for almost two-thirds of infections in London.
About a fifth of patients who have tested positive for Covid at King George Hospital in Ilford and Queen’s Hospital in Romford since the start of the pandemic, "definitely or probably" caught it in hospital.
On December 23, the trust “urgently stopped in-house testing and sent all tests to outsourced laboratories”. It plans to look into how many of its patients that tested negative in hospital later tested positive for the new strain of the virus at a testing facility.
