The coldest and wettest time of the year ❄️☔
Makuru is also known as the Season of Fertility, reflecting renewal, connection to Country, and the continuation of life cycles.
Traditionally, it is a time for caring for family, seeking shelter, storytelling, and sharing cultural knowledge during the colder weather.
Around the lakes and rivers of the South West, you may begin to notice an influx of Mali (Black Swans) as they prepare to nest and breed.
We respectfully acknowledge the Noongar people as the Traditional Custodians of the South-West land.
