Carnaby’s Black-Cockatoo using a ‘giant’ nest box - over 1m deep! There’s been excellent long-term research in West Aus into the conservation of this beautiful species. Loss of nesting & foraging habitat is the cause of the decline of these beauties

Thx @Aquila84WA

Wedge-tailed Eagle ecologist Simon Cherriman has been installing wildlife nest boxes in areas affected by catastrophic fires here in Noongar Country. He's put a book together and has a GoFundMe to get it printed. $45 gets you a copy!

The recent #Perth #bushfire (& human 'mop-up' machines) have destroyed countless living hotels like this one. Support our #nestbox #crowdfund to help Country heal: https://t.co/IqLohjYYB3 🔥😫🌳📦🙏🏼

Carnaby’s Black-Cockatoos have received great support through the provision of nest boxes - really big boxes!!! Over 1m deep, replicating large old tree hollows

This is a great example of research, experimentation, & monitoring information conservation actions

@cn_greenwell @BirdlifeOz I am guilty @cn_greenwell !! This bird was taken into rehab as a subadult in 2017 after eating a poisoned pigeon. I banded it with approval from ABBBS & WA Cons of Raptors released her at Woodman point. It's potentially the only banded adult WBSE in SW WA! WAHOOOO!! 🦅🦅

The deliberate poisoning of at least 136 wedge-tailed eagles in East Gippsland could have Australia-wide consequences, based on the research of Simon Cherriman @Aquila84WA https://t.co/mN0vdWA7is

[DEECA Victoria @DEECA_Vic]

We can now confirm 136 Wedge-tailed Eagles found hidden throughout property in bushland & scrub. We believe numbers may be higher than what we seized. At this stage no charges have been laid, but we have someone helping us with our enquiry. Contact @CrimeStopperVic with any info
