ABORIGINAL SIX SEASONS MAKE PERFECT SCENTS.

Bunuru Season

SECOND SUMMER

SEASON OF ADOLESCENCE

FEBRUARY & MARCH

Colour - Red

To represent the heat and hot weather.

Bunuru Season unveils the breathtaking stars illuminating the nocturnal sky, while the constellations, easily reinforce Noongar people's spiritual connection to country. The sunlight shifts the atmospheric conditions across the land and the ocean breeze affects the air's movement with Bunuru being the hottest Season in the Noongar Seasonal Calender.

The arrival of Bunuru brings the surroundings to be engulfed in heat and scarce rainfall, basking in radiant sunrays and intense warmth. As Bunuru's presence fills the air with a sultry heat and little rain, the landscape is bathed in golden sunbeams and an undeniable warmth.

The Noongar people are residing near the coastal regions, drawn by the abundance of fresh and salwater animals that serves as a primary source of food.

The wattle and banksia flora are blooming in this Season, filling the air with delicate fragrances while the majestic, ancient jarrah tree displays signs of growth that encompass not only its powerful existence of being but also serves as a sanctuary for the animals relying on it, such as the black cockatoo.
