Female & Male Carnaby's Cockatoos in a Candlestick Banksia on my property 🖤🤍
Another dead Banksia. This one was in full bloom at Christmas, looking perfectly healthy 2 weeks ago, and completely dead now. I don't know if it's died of old age, though I doubt it from its size, has succumbed to the lingering effects of heat stress from 2 summers ago, or something else. All I do know is that Banksias, Sheoak (both food species for the Carnaby's) and Kunzea are all dying at an increasingly alarming rate 😞
