Every day Wild

Uncle Lewis Yerloburka O'Brien and the Willy Wagtail


Listen Later

In this first episode, Kaurna Elder Uncle Lewis talks to Daniel about what it meant to know Willy Wagtail and his messages in one place (on Narrunga Country), then how that changed when he moved back to Kaurna country in Adelaide. 

There's a lot in this story, and Uncle Lewis shares some of the surrounding knowledge in a fascinating and generous way. 

This is followed by a discussion between Daniel and Agravaine about how they understood this information. 

We'd like to thank Uncle Lewis for talking with us, and would like to pay our respects to he and all Kaurna elders, past and present.
