Success! We are excited to share that Carnaby’s black-cockatoo chicks have been observed in artificial nesting tubes and natural hollows in the Avon River Basin. Read on to learn how you can contribute to the survival of this endangered species and complete our black-cockatoo survey if you spot them on your property.

Breeding season is in full swing for Carnaby’s in the Wheatbelt! This month, the Wheatbelt NRM team have been monitoring the artificial nesting hollows that were established during the previous black-cockatoo project, and are seeking feedback from anyone in the region who has spotted Carnaby’s black-cockatoos on their property via our Black-Cockatoo Survey.

Carnaby’s Black-Cockatoos will benefit from new funding for their Wheatbelt habitat, including artificial nests and pest control. Community sightings are crucial for tracking these birds and guiding conservation efforts—please report your sightings to help with conservation efforts.
