BUNURU SEASON

BUNURU SEASONBunuru is one of the Six Noongar Seasons and represents the months of February and March. It is the Season that is known as the Second Summer and the Season of Adolescence. Bunuru is the hottest Season with little to no rain, with a glorious abundance of sunlight and exceptional heat. Just like the Season of Birak, Noongar people's major food source was from fresh and saltwater fish and animals. The wattle and banksia plants are blossoming during this

and future

The sea breeze in the mornings and evenings makes this time of year refreshing and the ocean always gave an abundance of fresh food

we include our experience to be drawn upon as part of the collective knowledge of our Ancestral Beings who experience the physical world through our actions

our journey towards self-discovery is always an ongoing process

The brushtail possum sometimes takes bird eggs for protein and is relentlessly chased away by the djidi djidi

You realise you now have a choice

so does the Noongar diet with Kangaroo (yonga) and emu (weitj) being a important source of food this time of year

and foster kindness among one another

The weight of responsibility

focusing on readying food

Just like the Season of Birak

as it enables us to gain a deeper understanding of ourselves and make well-informed choices for our future
