Known as the “screaming woman bird,” “murder bird,” and “baby-cry bird,” the bush stone-curlew is as creepy as they come. She lurks motionless in the day, then stalks the night with eyes that don’t blink and a call that sounds like a baby wailing. In Larrakia Dreaming stories, and across other First Nations cultures, her haunting cry is said to be a mother searching for her lost child—a sorrow carried on the night air. Equal parts nightmare fuel and local icon, the curlew doesn’t care if she freaks you out. She sings anyway... and she sings like nobody is sleeping.

Shipping & Returns
Printed just for you. Every order is printed to order in Brisbane, usually within 1-3 business days.
Once your order has been printed and dispatched:
- Standard shipping: usually 4–8 business days
- Express shipping: usually 3–6 business days
- Free standard shipping on orders over $100
Top End customers: If you're in the NT and in a hurry (an unusual combination), we recommend choosing Express Shipping. Standard parcels from Brisbane tend to take the scenic route via Adelaide before eventually heading north. Express shipping usually takes the red-eye directly instead.
Because each item is printed to order, we can’t usually exchange items ordered in the wrong size. Please check the size guide before ordering. Annoying, but also fairly sensible.
If your item arrives damaged, faulty or incorrect, get in touch and we’ll sort it out.
Sustainability
Every That’ll Do, NT item is printed only after you order it.
That means no piles of unsold stock, less waste, and fewer sad shirts sitting in a warehouse wondering where it all went wrong.
Designed in Darwin. Printed in Brisbane. Made when it’s wanted.

Linda Loved almost everything about this tshirt which I ordered for myself. Great communication, quick delivery, great print on a lovely soft cotton tshirt.
True to size except… its so long! Not sure how I’ll wear it, as its long enough to be a dress. Tucked in to jeans, half the print disappears!
Print maybe needs to be reduced in size. Photo shows size with print compated to my average size tshirt.

Karen Tully I absolutely love this design,living in FNQ l have curlews in the yard and bush ,funny l had one nesting in the yard it saw my t-shirt and its eyes grew huge and it went into protective mode🤣
Anyway congratulations on such a great product using quality material and a fun print .
R
Rosita Henry Its a great T Shirt. Love the concept. I bought it for the curlew including the words "Sing like Nobody is Sleeping". I suggest adding an option to have the words in grey or white like the curlew, instead of red. I would find that more aesthetically pleasing and I think others might too 😊
