Langkwa (bush bananas) are a popular bush tucker in Central Australia. The banana vine grows by winding up other trees or along the ground. The leaves and flowers are edible and the white fibre of the fruit has a mild flavour, described by some as tasting like a snowpea.

Splendid Fairy-wren (Blue Wren)
While Splendid Fairy-wrens stand out brilliantly from the regular browns and blacks of many backyard birds, they’re quite shy and tricky to spot. As they venture out of their homes for food, they move very quickly.
You can spot them zipping out of the canopy like little rockets. When foraging on the ground, they quickly hop in large bounds.
You can often spot members of these flocks roosting on a tree branch and nestled up together. They also preen each other.
