Our Country (The Pilbara)
The Pilbara is the country where we the Yindjibarndi people live and share many of our Cultural stories and history that have been passed onto us by our ancestors, of how they used to walk through the flat country we call the (Table Lands) visiting family members at nearby stations. Our country has so much to offer. Bush foods and medicine as well as animals such as kangaroo, emu, goanna, and turkey. When the rains come our rivers are full and we all love to go out and spend the day fishing. We are also close to the ocean, so we often go fishing there as well. During the holidays many of our families go bush to enjoy what the country offers the beauty of our country we see through our eyes. Wildflowers bloom as nature takes its course and our country is still full of riches it always gives me joy to be a part of it, we are connected to our land it is a part of who we are.

Marni
The Pilbara is a land of many beautiful colours. Its beauty blends into the mother earth and against the red, purple hills in the distance. In time and season, the yellow wattles, mulla mulla and sturt pea bloom and the country comes alive with the wildflowers watered by the rain and heavy dew during the night. The land and our country also tells a wonderful story about our ancestors. They walk and lived on the land always gathering food such as fish from the river, hunting kangaroo, emus & tracking goanna’s and also gathering bush fruits and medicine.

After the rain the rivers and creeks in our country come alive with a new growth of plants. The country is filled with beautiful colours. We rejoice looking at our rivers and creeks full of water, so that we can go fishing, kids can go swimming and we can picnic with our families and friends.
