Katrina is telling the story of the Kaliny-kaliny or Honey Grevillea flower which is a favourite bush food of the Anangu Pitjantjatjara people. Ultukunpa grows in the sandy soils on the plains. The flowers can be picked and placed in a billycan of water to create 'honey water' (cordial) or they can be sucked for their sweet honey dew.
