Thepa kuka (Little bird)

When we go picnic day, swimming for the day, we see the birds come down, looking for our scraps. But we mostly just give them breadcrumbs. And swimming we see all the little birds sitting down by the riverbank.

Lhungurlpara – Fish with Many Bones

This is fish that got many bones. We used to line up with our nets and catch the fish, but the fish had many bones so children wasn’t allowed to touch it, only adults allowed to eat ‘em. This one was like a dangerous fish cos it had many bones, it was really strict. Adults never used to give us cos it would scare our parents that we would choke. Few times I ate and you can feel them little bones in your throat.

Me Swimming as a Young Girl

We are down at the river, me and all my family travelling around in the troopy when I was a young girl. We go fishing, everyone holds the fish net together. We throw them little babies back in the water and cook the big fishes on the fire and make tea. We go floating down the river in rubber rings too, relaxing and laughing, feeling good. All the birds are flying and my uncle bringing his horse too.
