Gang-gangs in Burra

Narla staff were lucky to discover this beautiful Gang-gang Cockatoo (Callocephalon fimbriatum) sitting outside a potential breeding hollow in Burra NSW whilst conducting an Ecological Constraints Assessment for a client.

Gang-gang Cockatoos are listed as Vulnerable under the NSW Biodiversity Conservation Act 2016 and have been listed in the last year as Endangered under the commonwealths Environment Protection and Biodiversity Act 1999.

Medium to large hollows are extremely important to the survival of this species and luckily our staff were able to identify this strapping male to provide our client with the appropriate advice so that it can be protected into the future.
