The Blue Wren - this piece represents the Tasmanian Aboriginal story of Dromerdeene, who seeking reconciliation with his brother Moihernee, is attacked by Moihernee's beasts. A tiny grey bird overhears the beasts' plan, valiantly tries to protect Dromerdeene, and is thrown against a tree. Other bush creatures join the fight, a bright star rescues Dromerdeene, and in gratitude, he bestows unique attributes upon the bird - Luina, the blue wren, including bright black eyes, a fan of feathers, and a crown of beautiful blue, symbolizing courage and freedom.
