Naree is part of the traditional Country of the Budjiti people. It's a former pastoral property found in one of the least disturbed parts of the Murray-Darling Basin in north-western NSW. It lies in the Mulga Lands bioregion, 150km north-west of Bourke, on the Cuttaburra Channels that connect the Paroo and Warrego rivers. Its southern boundary is the Cuttaburra Creek, and Yantabulla Swamp adjoins the property to the west... Naree helps protect nationally significant, arid-zone ephemeral wetlands...Naree Station ReserveIndeed, a gorgeous goanna...

More 'gorgeous' still, for me, is the official rise of indigenous names for places, rivers+even landmarks e.g. opening June, the Yawa Aquatic Centre at Rosebud.

Welcome to 2020 (and beyond we hope)...the year the world overturned with covid-19. This blog is intended to be an insight into my experiences this year - being wary of infection, but learning to live - see, think, wonder - differently. If you choose to comment, be supportive please. Thank you. Be safe. Namaste.
