This painting is about daga collecting. Go out in the bush the man hunting for birds the women getting all the bush food like lille root, mussel, things for the day to eat, day after day. This place here Yulu Billabong. This is my uncle, and all the ladies, all my aunties and grandmother, and mum getting all the bush tucka and when the men get all the tucka all birds and the lillie roots and they go back they sit down and share with other different family members and having a lovely daga. You get together and talk and tell that story of Country when they come back.

 The cockatoo there is growling or calling ‘get out, this is my land, you taking all my food’. - Rhonda Duncan
