Cooee Mittigar: A Story on Darug Songlines

Cooee Mittigar, meaning Come Here Friend, is an invitation to yana (walk), on Darug Country.

Greeted by Mulgo, the black swan, readers are welcomed to Nura. Journeying through the seasons, Mulgo describes the land, skyscape, birds, animals and totems. It is a gentle guide to how Darug people read the seasons, knowing when it is time to hunt and time to rest. It is also an appeal to remember, off ering new ways of seeing and reading the lands of the surrounding Sydney region.
