07.01.2022 WELCOME TO DJILBA Have you noticed blooms of yellow wildflowers around already? August and September sees the arrival of Djiba, the Nyoongar season of c...onception a time to look for yellow and cream flowers starting to bloom on mass. Djilba is a transitional time of the year, with some very cold and clear days combining with warmer, rainy and windy days mixing with the occasional sunny day or two. This is the start of the massive flowering explosion that happens in the south-west of the state which starts with yellow flowering plants such as acacias. Others colours that are around at this time of year are creams, combined with some vivid and striking blues. Traditionally, the main food sources were land-based grazing animals included the Yongar (kangaroo), the Waitj (emu) and the Koomal (possum). As the days start to warm up, the first newborns of these species would start to be seen with proud parents out and about finding food, teaching them to forage and protecting family units from bigger animals, including people. The woodland birds will still be nest-bound which means the swooping protective behaviour of the Koolbardi (Magpie) starts to ramp up and, if watched closely, so to do the Djidi Djidi (Willy Wag Tails) and the Chuck-a-luck (Wattle Birds) among others. As the season progresses and the temperatures continue to rise, the flower stalks of the Balgas (Grass Trees) will emerge in preparation for the coming Kambarang season. The Nyoongar calendar has six seasons, each representing the changes we see in the environment. Learn more about the six seasons on the Bureau of Meteorologys website: https://bit.ly/2rP5zbx Bureau of Meteorology. Edith Cowan University (ECU).
