This is painted looking west of Wallawala, between Karilwurra. 

The Nintaka (perentie lizard) was waiting for that Kunia (python) to come closer; so he could attack and eat him. The Kunia saw him, spotted him waiting and turned back, he did not want to go to that perentie's country. As he turned back, the kunia made that creek which you see in the work, which still runs today, between Walawala and Karilwurra, close to Kiwirikurra in the Western Desert.
