This song-verse was recorded by Peter Barker during the filming of a mortuary ceremony at Djunawunya on the Arnhem Land coast in July, 1978. Djunawunya is a few miles west of the mouth of the Blyth River. The film, Waiting for Harry, was shot and directed by Kim McKenzie. This particular Cockatoo song and its accompanying dance appear on Camera Roll 39 of the Waiting for Harry footage and are accessible in the film archive of the Australian Institute of Aboriginal Studies.--Page 451-452.
