Working Bee 8 June 2019

nikp November 27, 2019

Waring Wombat Season (April-July) Cool, rainy days follow misty mornings. The time of highest rainfall and lowest temperatures.

Waring (wombats) emerge to bask and graze in the sunshine. Bulen-bulen (Superb Lyrebird) males perform their courtship displays. Hearts of Kombadik (Soft Tree-ferns) are the major food when no fruits are available. Days are short and nights are long. The constellation of Sagittarius rises in the southeast after sunset, indicating the mid-point of cold weather.

'Wumangurruditj, that's wombat. Put a piece of wombat, a piece of pork and a piece of porcupine [echidna] and you can't tell the difference.' Jessie Hunter, 1999
