Description

Mangkaja or Wirringarri is a white bird from the Dreamtme. He is like an owl with black and white markings around his eyes. He travels at night. Mangkaja came from Kiyili way. Some people were frightened of this Mangkaja. They found him sitting down on a log. They tried to kill him but he flew up very high and where he landed there sprung up a waterhole, Mangkaja Kura. Nearby this place is Malajapi, the campsite of the Mala spirit. Mala is the little bush kangaroo. The people come here to tell the spirit to send plenty of Mala to the land.
