Year of Work: 2019
location: Eaton Drive, Shire of Dardanup
Provenance: Shire of Dardanup
Description: The Eastern Osprey is a medium-sized bird of prey that feeds mainly on fish and hunts in the rivers and estuarine waters around Eaton. It has dark brown feathers with pale white/cream feathers underneath that you can see when they fly above. The birds often undertake complex aerial displays where two birds will soar together in a series of patterns, or where one will follow the other weaving in and around an aerial course. These displays often occur near osprey nests, which are large structures made of sticks, driftwood and seaweed like the one located near the Eaton Foreshore along the Collie riverbank. The nests are used year after year so can reach up to two metres across and two metres tall.

Description: Carnaby's black cockatoo, also known as the short-billed black cockatoo, is a large black bird with a white facial patch on each ‘cheek’, and a fan of white feathers under the tail. They are only found in Western Australia from Kalbarri to Cape Arid. This species is classified as Endangered, due mostly to the loss and fragmentation of their preferred habitat, which is heathland plants like banksia and hakea flowers, and fruit and nuts from larger eucalypt trees.
