That’s the rushing river’s curly bend, cried the sea eagle perched on a knotted branch, swaying. There, look! That’s the cliff face sharp with sun-scorched stones, glinting, shrilled the hawk, gliding on summer winds. There, look! An exhilarating celebration of the Australian landscape as seen from the sky featuring vibrant illustrations by Balarinji, Australia’s leading Indigenous design studio.
