Budgerigar Dreaming - Ngatijirri Jukurrpa - Elizabeth Ross Nungarrayi

Ngatijirri is a bird with a hooked beak, a small green bird. It is yellowish across the forehead. Budgerigars fly from tree to tree search for food for the young ones. It flies all over our country. They know all the trees, creeks and water holes. They all get together and fly out to billabongs. They sleep in hollow trees near their special billabongs. Budgerigar dreaming belongs to the people in the skin groups Japaljarri, Napaljarri, Jungarrayi and Nungarrayi.
