Celena depicts about an emu who tells a lie to a bush turkey. The emu is deceptive, and claims that he has killed his son, and tries to convince the bush turkey to do the same. This is a trick, and the bush turkey is able to see through the lie, and keeps his only son.
In this painting, Celena depicts the footprints of both the birds, and the rocky outcrops of the Musgrave Ranges.
