Yep ...we are all still patiently waiting for the day when the people from world's oldest continuing culture, holding the same legal rights as a rock on a track before 1967, the traditional owners of this land, are at least acknowledged in the Constitution of Australia as part of the development of a treaty and edge closer to true reconciliation.

Yep - we are all still waiting ....

Emu, Rocky Ponds Track, Brisbane Waters National Park


This 4 1/2 foot emu is initially difficult to spot within the complex maze of earth-mover/trail grader lines that are present at this significant site. There has been some damage done to the Emu. A series of mundoes accompanies this engraving - these point in different directions. It is unusual to find an Emu so close to the ritual spearing/ punishment site. There are possibly may other engravings nearby that are hidden by the build up of silt and subsequent vegetation.
