This story is from Wanan. It refers to a rock that is white and black, the white symbolises the cockatoo while the black symbolises the crow.

The Eagle man wants to marry the cockatoo woman, however the crow lady is jealous. She tells the cockatoo woman that he’s not going to marry her, he’s going to marry me! While the Eagle man is secretly watching from behind bushes the woman start to fight. The crow woman hit the cockatoo woman on the head with her wana (large digging stick), splitting her head open. The cockatoo woman is angry and says I don’t want to marry him, you can! As a result no one gets married.
