Palm Valley waterhole. Always plenty of bush food in Palm Valley. Good water too. Kangaroo with little ones, lots of emu and echidna. All the birds there, drinking in river, nests in trees. Lots of perentie and goanna. Fish in the waterhole. Lots of fish and ducks there. Really good food everywhere. This is my family's Country. They used to live there. Then they lived Hermannsburg at the Mission. Visited for camping holidays on camels. It's got all kind of bush food, good for hunting.
