AbstractHistoryArchive Description
The Osprey lands at Rrawali and leaves for Mindarra on West Island, where he encounters the Sea Turtle Dreaming. He chases the Sea Turtles from island to island, killing many of them along the way. His pursuit of the Sea Turtles sculpts the form of the landscapes from West Island to Watson Island to the tip of the North Island.
