"This painting's about digging for Yerramp [honey ants] – after raining time they start off their digging. This is a picnic – just for day – not camping. No one's eaten yet. Everyone goes from Laramba when it’s raining time.

Good time to dig for Yerramp. This is a place near Tilmouth Roadhouse. The hill is called Urlperrarty – means upper back of spine. The men climbing up the hill, just looking all around, all the drivers, 6 cars, 2 bus, from Laramba. This is a big hill. Other two smaller hills got no name. These hills got minkulpa, you can cut ‘em pitjuri, it comes up after the rain. Kid’s tracks are everywhere, busy little ketyeye mob (Aboriginal kids) are running around and climbing up the trees, to the top of the trees. This little one’s climbing up, her mother’s singing come down come down, you’re too little! Other kids have climbed up before their mother could sing out fast enough to stop them. This is a favourite spot for digging honey ants – long time from the past.

All Laramba mob are digging–One sitting resting by car in the shade. Fire in the middle – no one sitting by him. Some kids [lower left] crying for honey ants. Another one [to the right] pulling mother’s hair. Another 2 kids fighting. Another one touching his  mum’s back. He tells her she has a big bum. One singing out ‘honey ants here!’ She’s got her arm up, waving, singing out. Someone’s checking for lousy (lice) and an old woman's standing in the middle of it all. Pink birds and white birds, all the cockies are thirsty for water, just a few, not too many. I always feed them bread, fill my pockets and take it out bush, they like it!"
