Favourite Australian animal?
Sooo hard! I adore the buru, the kangaroo, but I am really a bird woman and my favourite currently is the gang gang, a cockatoo.
Any scary animal experiences?
Many times in the bush at the back of my nana’s place I would come across a red-bellied black snake and nearly tread on it. Very scary!
Do you have a favourite flower?
My flowers are the waratah and flannel flower, which are blooming on Darug country right now.
