Kangaroo rock art at Nourlangie Rock. Art often shows what is available to hunt in the area.
Dancing figures
Dangerous mythical figure who attacks women and eats them after hitting them over the head with a yam.
One of the many signs along the way which explain the art. Double zoom to read it all.
The actual painting that goes with that sign.
View of Nourlangie Rock's escarpment
Brolgas on the Yellow Water cruise. Aboriginal dances often depict their "dancing' movements.
Pied cormorant
Saltwater or estuarine croc. They were mistaken for Alligators by the first explorer in the area, hence the name "Alligator River".
This one was trying to hide under the log and creep up on a bird on the shoreline.From Kazie:
These are the first day of the Kakadu Tour which I took out of Darwin. On the first day we visited Nourlangie Rock and cruised the East Alligator River's "Yellow Water".
