Bundjil

Another one of Tara’s Australian birds loose in Melbourne.

Bundjil (or Bunjil) is the powerful creator spirit and ancestral being in the mythology of the Kulin Nation Aboriginal people of southeastern Australia, often depicted as a wedge-tailed eagle who shaped the land, created animals, plants, people, and established laws, with stories detailing his creation of mountains, rivers, and life itself, and his transformation into the stars to watch over the world

. Variations in spelling like "Bundjil" reflect the oral nature of traditional storytelling, and themes of his creation are central to local culture and landmarks like Bunjil Place
