Knock 'em down storm time
Nakurl (knock 'em down storms) coming from koyek (the east) flattens Manbedje yirridjdja (the early spear grass). Manbedje duwa (the later spear grass) is now green and growing until barra (the later rains). The vast expanses of floodwater recedes and streams start to run clear. Most plants are fruiting and animals are caring for their young.
This is a beautiful time to visit Kakadu, with the clear air, and warm winds only interspersed with an occasional wind storm. Easter generally coincides with Bangkerreng and is a popular time for visitors in Kakadu, with the accessible waterfalls and swimming holes providing a refreshing escape from the heat.
