Mindaleny (\u003cem\u003ePrickly Moses - Acacia pilchella\u003c\/em\u003e) is one of the first to be seen. The weather is cold, and birds are taking shelter from the sudden showers, then busy themselves with nest preparation during the mild sunny days. Food is abundant and animals begin pairing to prepare for offspring. Yonga (\u003cem\u003eKangaroos\u003c\/em\u003e) and weitj (\u003cem\u003eEmus\u003c\/em\u003e) are taking advantage of the new growth and venture further inland as water sources are replenished and food is in abundant supply.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe foraging habit of Emus teaches their young how to survive and also helps to deliver seeds to new areas for future growth, maintaining the reliable food source. Possums (\u003cem\u003eNgwir\u003c\/em\u003e) are extremely territorial and will venture out during the night but always return to their home tree where the koormal (\u003cem\u003efemale possum\u003c\/em\u003e) starts to prepare a den for new offspring while the kelang (\u003cem\u003emale possum\u003c\/em\u003e) helps to collect soft supplies. The Galyang (\u003cem\u003eRidgid wattle - Acacia cochlearis),\u003c\/em\u003e Kudjong (\u003cem\u003eOrange wattle - Acacia salinga)\u003c\/em\u003e are expected to burst with colour and gloriously flower mid-season.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAs we progress though the Season and the weather warms, we can expect protective koolbardi (\u003cem\u003emagpies\u003c\/em\u003e) to guard their nest area by swooping upon uninvited guests, the djidi djidi (\u003cem\u003ewilly wagtail\u003c\/em\u003e) dances to distract and chase larger birds and predators away with a swoop and loud clicking sound. The brushtail possum sometimes takes bird eggs for protein and is relentlessly chased away by the djidi djidi. Nearing the end of the Season, the grass tree (\u003cem\u003ebalga\u003c\/em\u003e) will grow magnificent flower stalks and the yellow-green large cone flowers of the poolgarla (\u003cem\u003ebull banksia - banksia grandis\u003c\/em\u003e) can be seen. Traditionally, the cones were used to start campfires (\u003cem\u003ekarla\u003c\/em\u003e) and were also useful for transporting the hot fire coals to a new location.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DJARLINY DESIGNS","offers":[{"title":"A1 FINE PAPER PRINT | 59.4 X 84 CM","offer_id":44407412916275,"sku":null,"price":650.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"A2 FINE PAPER PRINT | 42 X 59.4 CM","offer_id":44407412949043,"sku":null,"price":205.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"A3 FINE PAPER PRINT | 29.7 X 42 CM","offer_id":44407412981811,"sku":null,"price":140.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"QUALITY CANVAS | 50 X 46.8 CM","offer_id":44407413014579,"sku":null,"price":550.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"QUALITY CANVAS | 100 X 93.6 CM","offer_id":44407413047347,"sku":null,"price":1500.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0255\/8417\/3107\/files\/djilba_six_seasons_-_new_-edited-full_0c22111c-aaac-4fd7-819c-1210602cc817.jpg?v=1780624829","url":"https:\/\/www.djarlinydesigns.com.au\/products\/colours-of-djilba","provider":"DJARLINY DESIGNS","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
