Data from The Great Cocky Count which takes place annually in early to mid-April. This event records birds as they fly in to night roosts on a single day and has taken place since 2010. Three species are recorded: Carnaby’s and Baudin’s (white-tailed) and Forest Red-tailed Black-Cockatoos. In the Perth-Peel Coastal Plain all white-tailed are assumed to be Carnaby’s. In other areas the roosts could include either species or both, so a generic ‘white-tailed’ term is used. Roosting sites have been buffered to I Kilometre
