Making Inland Glossies Great Again

Webinar: Making Glossies Great Again

A collaborative partnership between Local Land Services, NSW Environment, Energy and Science, NSW National Parks & Wildlife Service, Australian Wildlife Conservancy, Central West Landcare groups, Forestry Corporation of NSW, Dubbo Field Naturalists & Conservation Society and the Central Inland Glossy Black Cockatoo Working Group, will implement Central Inland GBC Conservation Strategy actions across three broad sites that will enable community involvement and onground action in GBC conservation.

Successful systematic population surveys in the Goonoo province will be enhanced and invigorated in the Goonoo, and replicated in the Pilliga and Hervey Range provinces to provide an integrated citizen science program that will act as a baseline for future population monitoring and conservation initiatives. Foraging habitat and nesting trees will be mapped and protected. New habitat areas on public and private land will be established and existing habitat will be enhanced.

The project will foster stewardship of GBC within the community to secure the breeding population in the wild across Central Inland of NSW for the long term.
