Old Man Winter is a personification of winter derived from ancient Greek mythology and Old World pagan beliefs. For Wadawurrung People, seasons were an active, observant practice of reading the sky, air, water, and the behaviors of the plants and animals.

With webbed feet, waterproof fur, and a white-tipped tail, these clever little hunters can swim underwater chasing fish and yabbies.
