Shire of Serpentine Jarrahdale strengthens partnership with Landcare SJ
Thank you!
Many thanks to past donors who have supported research and development, and placement of Cockatube nestboxes. The Cockatube has been used to compliment ever diminishing breeding habitat for at least six Black Cockatoo species across Australia.
Landcare Serpentine-Jarrahdale has donated over 150 Cockatubes through support in our donor program, particularly into fire ravaged areas since 2019, both in Western Australia, and across east coast and South Australia – it’s not only people who lose their homes. Donations have contributed to scientific R&D, leading to better understanding of optimal breeding habitat for all species of Black Cockatoo, through Landcare SJ’s program of continuous design improvement. Your support is making a difference. Please consider.
Donations over $2 are tax deductible in Australia.
