This seasons makes everything dry. The wind is from the east, Bulunu and sometimes Dhimurru. This wind can also get very strong.

The grass is getting dry, the fresh water is no longer running through the beaches. The grass is still tall, its not a good time for camping, there are still many mozzies around. After the grass drys out it is better. It’s the coldest time of the year we need fires to keep warm as it can get very cold

Lots of plants and trees are flowering, there is guku being made by the bees. The Gangurri leaves are yellow and its a good time to dig for them. Nyoka (crabs) are good to eat, in fact all seafood is good; Guya, (fish) Mekawu (Oysters), Madi (Crayfish) Marrandjalk (Stingray) Burruwu (small shark). In some places you see Muthali (Ducks) laying their eggs.
