Back of photo: "Blowing the didgerydoo on the beach at Milingimbi, Crocodile Islands, Arnhem Land". "Under wide branching tamarind trees, groups much as this are usual during the hottest hours of the day. The men make or fastion and decorate weapons: one may blow the drone pipe, a long hollow stick or piece of bamboo stem. Women weave mats and do other work, while the chirldren play or loll about in the shade."--Northern Australia by Charles Barrett p 23.,
