Australia Day 2023
As the sun rose on Booningbah (Fingal Head) on Australia Day morning, the Koori flag was raised on the geological wonder known as The Giant’s Causeway.
The formation is known as ‘columnar basalt’ and is the remains of an ancient lava flow created some 23 million years ago. At low tide, these hexagon-shaped columns are accessible and the Bunjalung people call it the Booning (echidna) which some say was chased into the ocean.
