New Haven- English TranslationWe went to New Haven (Wardikinpirri) in the hot time to look for di�erent birds to make another bird book. Our �rst Warlpiri bird book was made a�er the Rangers went to Karrinyarra. �e elders gave the Warlpiri names and told the stories about the birds. �ey recorded birds at Karrinyarra and also looked at photos from the Warumungka bird book. �e book was put together by Madelaine Dixon who was a Ranger at that time. She put the stories with the pictures. Lots of other birds are not in the �rst book. Now we have only a few old men and women le� of the ones who used to walk around in the bush before white people came. Later on they will all be gone and the children and even adults won’t know those other birds. We could lose their names and stories.Bentley James Jungarrayi had some funding to employ some Aboriginal people for a project in Central Australia to collect Aboriginal traditional knowledge. He asked us what we would like to work on. So that’s why we went to New Haven to look for birds.Two Rangers live there, Joe Japaljarri and Danae Nakamarra with their two little children. �ey made us welcome and showed us around. Nyirrpi Rangers, four men and two women, Nampijinpa and Nakamarra stayed with us. �ey cooked for us and kept the camp very clean. Also they knew lots of birds and where they gather. �ey took us to the hills, to rockholes, to the bore, to the scrub, to the sand dunes, to the salt lake and to two big claypans where there was still water lying.

One very knowledgable lady who came with Bentley, Micha, could recognise lots of the birds from far away, and took photos of them with a very big camera.�e birds around here all have Warlpiri names and Dreamings. �ree older ladies told us the stories and sang some ceremony songs for them.On Wednesday we went claypans called Kapuka with the Middle class boys from school to see the places and learn where birds live.�ey make their nests in the scrub, in trees, in hollow logs, in the hills, in caves, in the spinifex, in the creek banks and in holes in the ground and stony creeks.Nampijinpa told them the Dreaming story about the Mala, Rat kangaroo which came from Mawurrungu from the south. Also we saw thousands of black faced swallows �ying around.On �ursday we took the senior girls class to the big salt lake. A little very salty water was lying there. We saw two birds walking by the water. Nampijinpa told them about the dreamtime huge serpent which was lying around there in the salt-lake, which is called Yankanjini, which then went on to Pirdi, south of Nyirrpi.
