Builder, kayaker, lousy cook, atheist, anything water-related 🌊. Mostly irresponsible.
Such a tragic loss to Ausmusic

This is on a par with the urine-drinkers level of disconnection from reality.

Maybe this person is one of them too.....

An elevator that smells suspiciously like a drop bear with giardia was in there previously 💩

The giant Pluto gas plant is literally only hundreds of metres away from where these pics were taken, and the soon-to-be even more giant Woodside gas plant is over the next hill :(

Murujuga is undoubtedly the most irreplaceable snapshot of the history of humans in the southern hemisphere.

Demand YOUR government protects it forever- for YOUR grandchildren.

Shell middens. Seed grinding stones. Stone implements. Carvings of tribal ceremonies, rain dances, food preparation, teaching children.

Murujuga is not just rock glyphs - it's a library, a historical resource, an ancient but contemporary education facility for the Ngarluma and Yindjibarndi.

There are unmistakable human figures, barely a third of the height up the hill above ground, clearly warning for the uninitiated to go NO further up. 🚫

Their Marrga and Mangunyba spirit guardians still reside on these high hills, and they hold enormous power

And you can feel their presence.

Our young guide Sara is an emerging tribal elder - educated in the Seven Sisters lore by her desert people. She cannot show us some of the works here, and requested that we do not take pictures of ANY human faces in the glyphs - there are firm boundaries between women's and men's business here.

This one photo has more than 20 discernible carvings in it.

The rocks here are called gabbyon. Igneous rocks, extremely hard. The difficulty of chipping centimetres deep into them with stone tools, defies belief. Yet the diversity of glyphs, and the scaling and accuracy, is astonishing.

There are Gondwana-era mega-fauna recorded here - shorter legged oversize kangaroos, giant emus with a backwards toe. Thylacines, but striped all over. Longer bodied stingrays. Giant quolls.

Murujuga is the heartland of the Ngarluma and Yindjibarndi peoples, and they retain a deep and powerful spiritual and cultural connection to this place.

The publicly accessible areas are a small sample of over a million carvings here.

The EARLIEST identified specimens here are pre-Ice Age, and are now underwater due to rising sea levels.

Something For Kate were totally underrated imo, and last years collab project with Bernard Fanning on their Fanning Dempsey National Park album The Deluge further highlighted what a great singer songwriter Paul Dempsey is.

The huge increase in helicopter flights from Broome, and their hot-refuelling operations at Djarindjin on the Dampier Peninsula, will be the death knell of that pristine environment, and many of the endangered birds who've made Roebuck Bay their home for millenia.

SAY NO TO BROWSE 🚫

There are 34 000ha of tidal flats in Roebuck Bay, the most significant Ramsar-recognised intertidal wetland in the world.
The migratory birds breeding, feeding and resting on the flats here is remarkable - and the massive increase in helicopter traffic to Browse will not only drive the humans crazy
October 25, 2025 at 9:22 AM
In May 2025, the WA and federal Labor governments approved the Browse project.
October 25, 2025 at 9:17 AM
For 20 years now, Woodside have tried repeatedly to coerce the WA government to greenlight their Browse gas field project - firstly planning land-based at James Price Point (which protest action defeated), and now via a 900km pipeline pumping the gas to the Burrup Gas Hub near Karratha, at Murujuga.
October 25, 2025 at 9:16 AM
There are significant helicopter operations from Broome, huge loud twin-engine Sikorsky helicopters, servicing the giant Shell-owned Floating LNG Prelude rig, and the multiple Japanese-owned Inpex platforms in the Ichthyus gas field ("ick thuss", ironically the Greek word for *fish*) 400km offshore.

One of the many quirks of Broome WA is the international airport - it's in the middle of town.

The 737s rattle their landing gear across the roofs of Broomes Chinatown on approach.

Anyone who has been to Broome will no doubt remember this vividly.

But the jets are not the worst noise pollution.
