Australian Governments are undertaking a comprehensive strategic assessment of the Perth and Peel Regions of Western Australia. The strategic assessment will facilitate a consistent 'big-picture' approach to environment and heritage protection as well as the types of land use development that will be allowed, and the conditions under which development may go ahead. The strategic assessment will enable a strategic approach to the management and protection of Matters of National Environmental Significance (MNES) within the Perth – Peel regions, with Carnaby’s Cockatoo (Calyporhynchus latirostris) being a key MNES for the regions. Eco Logical Australia (ELA) was consequently engaged by SEWPaC to conduct a Carnaby’s Cockatoo habitat assessment to address key knowledge gaps in relation to the species’ habitat and use of habitat within the Perth and Peel Regions. The research has been identified as necessary to support regional planning and to contribute to determination of what measures need to be undertaken to ensure Carnaby’s Cockatoo persists in perpetuity in the Perth and Peel regions. Following commencement of the project it was determined that a focus on foraging habitat values and use, in order to provide information on potential foraging habitat resources value based on habitat modelling being undertaken by the Western Australian Department of Environment and Conservation (DEC). This report provides ecological and spatial data on Carnaby’s Cockatoo foraging habitat that will be used in habitat modelling and population viability analyses for long-term Carnaby’s Cockatoo Conservation. The objectives for the habitat assessment were to: Ground truth vegetation communities modelled by DEC as likely foraging habitat for Carnaby’s Cockatoo. Quantify Carnaby’s Cockatoo foraging habitat value within areas of remnant foraging habitat within the Perth and Peel regions. Determine Carnaby’s Cockatoo foraging habitat usage of remnant foraging habitat within the Perth and Peel regions. Provide additional opportunistic data on roost site usage. In accordance with methodologies approved by State and Federal Government 27 sample locations were selected comprising 333 points, across the Swan Coastal Plain. These were surveyed for Carnaby’s Cockatoo foraging habitat value and foraging evidence. The Carnaby’s Cockatoo foraging plant species recorded during the field survey were compared to previous vegetation mapping which provided a basis for validating the modelled vegetation data. Foraging residues, either chewed banksia pods or flowers, were found to be extensive being recorded at 24 of the 27 localities surveyed. Of the 1665 Banksia trees searched during this survey, approximately 16 % of trees had some evidence of either recent or old banksia flower or pod foraging residue. The amount of foraging residue recorded was variable both within individual sample locations as well as across the Perth – Peel landscape. In terms of foraging resource, mean banksia tree density ranged from 266 to 534 trees per hectare across the localities surveyed. © ECO LOGICAL AUSTRALIA PTY LTD 1 SEWP aC C ar na b y’ s C oc ka too H a bi ta t As s e ss me nt P er th- Pe el R e gi on Based on the results, Carnaby’s Cockatoo forages extensively throughout the Perth and Peel regions on Banksia attenuta and B. menziesii. Some differences observed in the spatial distribution of foraging residues may be due to the differences in foraging resource availability across the region. Even though there was a paucity of Carnaby’s Cockatoo presence observed during the survey, the extensive foraging residue, particularly in bushland areas south of the Swan River, indicates that Banksia attenuata flowers are an extensively utilized, albeit highly seasonal nectar and invertebrate food source. A lack of foraging evidence recorded within some areas surveyed that support Carnaby’s Cockatoo foraging plant species is unlikely to be an absolute indication of actual usage. An absence of foraging activity may be attributed to other factors such as annual rainfall variability, fire or irregular foraging activity at a spatial or temporal level. Some variability between sample locations in Banksia pod density is likely to be due to fire history, water stress and possibly Phytophthora dieback. Other factors likely to be affecting Banksia pod density relate to productivity and growth habit caused by soil, topography and local climate. This may explain the variation observed across the Perth and Peel regions. There was a high level of conformity of the mapped vegetation communities in terms of important foraging species for Carnaby’s Cockatoo. For the most extensive and dominant foraging plant groups, Banksias and Eucalypts, these genera were identified on-ground extensively within all sites where they have been previously mapped. Based on the survey results, the Department of Environment and Conservation’s Carnaby’s Cockatoo habitat modelling provides a broad scale but reliable tool for assessing foraging habitat; however there is some scope for enhancing the vegetation mapping at a finer scale based on spatial data on soils and topography. This is likely to identify additional areas of Banksia woodland at fine scale within areas currently mapped as lacking in foraging plant species. The implication being, those areas modelled as non-foraging habitat may in some areas include patches of foraging habitat, however implications that this may have on any future land planning within the Perth – Peel region would be site specific and a matter for DSEWPaC to assess. © ECO LOGICAL AUSTRALIA PTY LTD 2 SEWP aC C ar na b y’ s H a bi ta t As s e ss me nt P erth -P e e l Re gi on Introduction 1 1. 1 St ra teg i c As s e s sm e nt O v e rv i ew The Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPaC) and the Western Australian Government is undertaking a comprehensive strategic assessment of the Perth and Peel Regions of Western Australia. This strategic assessment is to be undertaken in accordance with section 146 of the Commonwealth Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act). The strategic assessment will enable a strategic approach to the management and protection of Matters of National Environmental Significance (MNES) within the Perth and Peel regions; areas of high economic growth and land development. It will facilitate a consistent 'big-picture' approach to environment and heritage protection that provides certainty in the long term, by determining areas most appropriate for conservation protection and areas most suitable for sustainable development, as well as the types of land use development that will be allowed, and the conditions under which development may go ahead. Matters of National Environmental Significance to which the EPBC Act applies in the Perth and Peel Regions include: National heritage places Wetlands of international importance (Ramsar sites) Nationally threatened species and ecological communities; and Migratory species Of the nationally threatened species, Carnaby’s Cockatoo (Calyporhynchus latirostris) occurs throughout much of south-west Western Australia, including the Perth and Peel Regions and is listed as Endangered under the EPBC Act. This species is and will continue to be an important and high profile species of national significance that is the focus of Commonwealth environmental approvals for land development proposals within the Perth and Peel regions. 1. 2 H abi t at As s e s sm en t O b je ctiv es Eco Logical Australia (ELA) was engaged by SEWPaC to conduct a Carnaby’s Cockatoo habitat assessment to provide information on potential foraging habitat resources value and use, based on habitat modelling undertaken by the Western Australian Department of Environment and Conservation (DEC).

The Strategic Assessment project area extends from the City of Wanneroo in the north, to the Shire of Waroona to the south and including the local government areas of Murray, Serpentine-Jarrahdale, Armadale, Kalamunda, Mundaring and Swan as the eastern boundaries. The project area includes the two IBRA regions of the Swan Coastal Plain and Jarrah Forest. The soils of the Perth and Peel region include the Quindalup, Spearwood and Bassendean Dunes of the Swan Coastal Plain, the Darling Scarp and Plateau, and the Pinjarra Plains (Peel Development Commission 2012; Perth Region NRM 2013). The Swan Coastal Plain is characterised by its dominating Banksia and Tuart woodlands on sandy soils. The Jarrah Forest includes Marri-Wandoo woodlands and a mosaic of Jarrah forests on Mesozoic sediments (DEC 2013). The Perth and Peel region is defined to have a ‘Mediterranean’ climate with hot dry summers and cool wet winters. Average summer temperatures range from a maximum of 29°C and minimum of 17°C but can reach over 38°C. Winter temperatures average from a maximum of 18°C and minimum of 9°C (Peel Development Commission 2012; Perth Web Pty Ltd 2013). The region is a major economic centre of Western Australia and has a high economic growth and land development. There is increasing pressures on land clearing for residential and industrial development to cater for the growing population (Department of Planning 2010). © ECO LOGICAL AUSTRALIA PTY LTD 4 SEWP aC C ar na b y’ s C oc ka too H a bi ta t As s e ss me nt P er th- Pe el R e gi on Figure 1: Site Location map of Perth – Peel Region © ECO LOGICAL AUSTRALIA PTY LTD 5 SEWP aC C ar na b y’ s H a bi ta t As s e ss me nt P erth -P e e l Re gi on 2 Methodology 2. 1 Ex pe rt Co ns ult at ion To ensure the survey was undertaken in accordance with methodologies approved by State and Federal Government representatives, the survey methodology and site selection process for the foraging habitat survey was prepared in consultation with personnel from SEWPaC including Paul Keighley, and the DEC including David Mitchell, Teagan Johnston and Clayton Sanders. Other expert advice was sought from Tamara Kabat (BirdLife Australia), Tony Kirkby (WA Museum) and Hugh Finn (Murdoch University). 2. 2 Sa mp le Sit e S e le ct i on Sample sites were selected from a prioritisation process required due to the extensive study area and time and resource constraints for the study. Five broad areas within the Perth and Peel regions were identified as areas of interest to be surveyed; these being the northern Swan Coastal Plain (SCP), the southern SCP, Peel, Perth Hills and Southern Hills. It was determined that the northern and southern SCP and Peel areas were the highest priority for assessment, with the Perth and Southern Hills to be assessed only if time permitted. The northern SCP has extensive areas modelled as Carnaby’s Cockatoo foraging habitat and potential roosting habitat. Data is required on whether this habitat is being utilised. The southern SCP and Peel areas have highly fragmented remnants of Carnaby’s Cockatoo foraging habitat. More data is needed about usage and therefore the significance of these bushland remnants for Carnaby’s Cockatoo. Perth and Southern Hills forests provide an extensive, but different assemblage of potential foraging habitats compared to the woodlands and shrublands of the Coastal Plain. Additional data is required on foraging and roosting habitat usage of these areas within Darling Range, however field assessment is complicated by use of the habitat by other species (including other black cockatoo species) and the difficulties of differentiating between them. Effort therefore focussed on assessment of sites on the Swan Coastal Plain, also reflecting the higher land use and development pressures compared to the forest region which is largely State forest under management by DEC. A total of 27 high priority sites were selected for surveying for Carnaby’s Cockatoo foraging habitat and foraging evidence across the Swan Coastal Plain of the Perth – Peel regions. This survey effort was a compromise between allowing extensive coverage of the Perth and Peel regions, and providing adequate sample size to allow some statistical analysis. The localities of these sites are shown in Figure 2. Sites were selected based on the considerations discussed below. Location of Sample Sites All sites were located within the Perth and Peel Regions with the exception of the locality: Muchea 2 in the Northern Swan Coastal Plain, where some sample points were located to the proximal eastern edge of the Perth and Peel Regions boundary. This area was included following discussion with David Mitchell (DEC) confirming the relevance of this area to the habitat assessment. © ECO LOGICAL AUSTRALIA PTY LTD 6 SEWP aC C ar na b y’ s C oc ka too H a bi ta t As s e ss me nt P er th- Pe el R e gi on Carnaby’s Cockatoo Foraging Habitat Sampling sites were selected based on spatial data on foraging habitat available from the DEC (Glossop et.al 2011). This spatial data set is derived from the mapping of vegetation that contains plant species known to be preferred foraging plants for Carnaby’s Cockatoo as listed by Groom (2011). Land Tenure Land Tenure was a primary consideration in access, logistics, field efficiency and project reserves, Regional Parks, State forest and avoided for logistical considerations such as related time constraints. sample site selection for the purposes of maximising site timelines. Sites chosen included National Parks, Nature Unallocated Crown Land (UCL). Private property was the necessity to gain permission for land access and the Accessibility Sample sites were chosen based on accessibility by 4WD vehicle. In order to minimise edge effects however, sample points were located at least 10 metres from any vehicle track. Time Available The amount of survey that could be undertaken was influenced by the relatively short timeframe set for the project from inception to completion of reporting. 2. 3 S a mpl e P oint s For the 27 selected survey localities shown in Table 1, a total of 333 point locations (sample points) were chosen within Banksia woodland communities as mapped by Glossop et al (2011). At each sample point the GPS position was logged and the nearest five Banksia trees were assessed in terms of Carnaby’s Cockatoo foraging value and foraging residue. This gave a total of 1665 individual trees sampled during this survey with approximately equal amount of survey effort north and south of the Swan River, with 840 and 825 trees assessed respectively. The spatial arrangement and number of sample points at each of the 27 sites was determined primarily by the extent of bushland within each respective site. That is, based on Carnaby’s Cockatoo foraging habitat modelled (Glossop et.al 2011), patch size and extent is highly variable across the Perth and Peel regions. For example the northern areas have extensive and highly connected areas dominated by Banksia attenuata – B.menziesii woodland, whereas southern bushland areas are highly fragmented and occur as comparatively small remnant patches within an extensively developed landscape. In addition, some bushland areas sampled comprised a mosaic of vegetation types including vegetation lacking Carnaby’s Cockatoo foraging plant species. Therefore the number of points sampled within each locality varied from 6 to 18 sample points based on the area of available bushland and the distribution of Carnaby’s Cockatoo foraging habitat. There was a minimum of 50 metre spacing between each sample point. 2. 4 F e edi ng R es idu e The survey was carried out from 7 to 28 March 2013 which coincided with Carnaby’s Cockatoo nonbreeding season. Searches were carried out below each of the five nearest mature (pod bearing) Banksia trees to identify Carnaby’s Cockatoo feeding residue (chewed pods or flowers) and qualify the presence, and quantify the amount and age, of foraging habitat usage at each sample point. The location and amount of chewed Banksia flowers and pods (foraging residues) where detected was © ECO LOGICAL AUSTRALIA PTY LTD 7 SEWP aC C ar na b y’ s C oc ka too H a bi ta t As s e ss me nt P er th- Pe el R e gi on recorded for all sample points. All data collected at each sample point was recorded on a field data sheet (Appendix B) and is summarised in Table 1. Identification of foraging residues as that of Carnaby’s Cockatoo was based on well documented known foraging species, beak and chew patterns, and based on experience of direct observation of Carnaby’s Cockatoo foraging activity, as well as other locally occurring species. This allowed for a high level of certainty in foraging residue identification. At a number of sites, fallen limbs of adjacent Banksia trees resulted in numerous fallen banksia flowers being present. Careful assessment of fallen flowers was completed to determine if they were feeding residue or the result of tree fall. For a some sample points located in vegetation communities comprising Marri (Corymbia calophylla) Jarrah (Eucalyptus marginata) woodlands, the foraging resource was calculated primarily for the Banksia trees present to allow direct comparisons of survey localities, and due to the unreliability of estimating pods and blossom on tall Gum tree species. Photographs were taken of foraging residues and other observations recorded for later confirmation where required, and a selection of these are included as Appendix E. 2. 5 F or ag ing R e sou rc e At every sample point data was recorded for the five Banksia trees nearest the sample point. For each of the five Banksia trees the number of buds, flowers (both fresh and senescent), and pods on trees (both open and closed) was recorded. This data allowed for calculation of estimates of foraging resource characteristics including resource density trees and pods per m 2. Density was calculated based the circular area (m2) in which the banksias were sampled. For example, for a survey point where the furthest of the five banksias was 10 metres, then the radius of this sample area was 10 metres, then the sample area = π x 102 = 314 m2. Tree density in this example is therefore 5 trees per 314 m2, or approximately 159 trees per hectare. For the vast majority of the 333 points sampled Banksia attenuata – B. menziesii woodlands was the dominant component, however some sample points were located within low Banksia sessilis shrublands, where the density of B.sessilis foraging resource and foraging residue searches were based on a search of a 10 x 10 metre quadrat around each sample point. 2. 6 V al id at io n of V ege t at i on C om mun iti e s The Carnaby’s Cockatoo foraging plant species recorded during the field survey at each sample point were compared to the vegetation descriptions accompanying the spatial data on foraging habitat mapped by Glossop et.al (2011). Some mapped vegetation types that were surveyed during this study were not accompanied by a description of the dominant vegetation. For these sites, the vegetation codes were sourced from the Directory of Bush Forever Sites (Government of Western Australia 2000). Table 3 presents a comparison of the current mapped vegetation for the Perth and Peel Regions with the on-ground survey results for all sites surveyed, together with comments on whether the mapped vegetation conforms to the vegetation recorded during the survey. This provided a basis for validating the modelled spatial data. 2. 7 O p po rt un is t i c S ea r c he s f o r R o ost s Searches for Carnaby’s Cockatoo roost sites were carried out on an opportunistic basis as a secondary priority within this foraging habitat assessment. Using previously mapped confirmed and potential roost site from the 2012 Great Cocky Count (Kabat et.al 2012) several locations were selected where there is a lack of known roosts. Within the vicinity of these locations, a position in the landscape such as hill top © ECO LOGICAL AUSTRALIA PTY LTD 8 SEWP aC C ar na b y’ s C oc ka too H a bi ta t As s e ss me nt P er th- Pe el R e gi on or expansive wetland was chosen having a wide view of the surrounding landscape. These locations were visited during late afternoon for approximately half an hour to the time of sunset. The surrounding landscape, particularly the bushland canopy was scanned using binoculars to detect Carnaby’s Cockatoo in the general area. Where Cockatoos were recorded, the time, direction of flight and approximate number of birds was recorded. 2. 8 Su rv e y Li mit at i on s Banksia Flowering Periods The survey period was in March which does not coincide with peak flowering periods of some of the dominant Banksia species. The flowering period of Banksia attenuata peaks from January to February and flowering had finished in a number of northern sites surveyed. Consequently at some sites flowers on trees were at a late stage and other senescent flowers were disregarded. The presence of Pine plantations throughout the Perth and Peel regions, especially the northern Swan Coastal Plain, will have an effect on the seasonal foraging activity of Carnaby’s Cockatoo. Saunders (1974) found extensive feeding by Carnaby’s Cockatoo on the Gnangara pine plantations during the summer – autumn period, which coincides with pine seed production. Therefore there is likely to be a reduction of observable feeding activity of Carnaby’s Cockatoo on native Banksia pods during the survey period due to heavy preference for pine seed by Carnaby’s Cockatoo over this period. Decay of feeding residue Detection of old chewed banksia pods and flowers, and conclusions as to their being foraging evidence, may be unreliable due to the disintegration of pods caused by decomposition and termites. As fallen Banksia pods and flowers age, it becomes progressively challenging to positively identify those chewed by Carnaby’s Cockatoos due to the causes mentioned (RBC, pers.obs). Therefore data on presence of old feeding residue can only account to feeding activity in the short-term and cannot provide information on feeding activity over the medium and long-term. Flower Residue Identification The confirmation of Carnaby’s Cockatoo foraging residues based on flower spikes (inflorescences) can be difficult. Banksia attenuata and B.menziesii inflorescences can fall from trees as they age or due to adjacent tree or limbs falling, of due to water stress. Therefore, assessment of fallen Banksia flowers can be less reliable than identifying chewed Banksia pods. Identification of foraging flower residues as that of Carnaby’s Cockatoo was based on experience of direct observation of Carnaby’s Cockatoo foraging activity, as well as the documented food preference of Carnaby’s Cockatoo and other locally occurring species. This allowed for a high level of certainty in foraging residue identification. Flower residue data in this report provides a reliable indication of foraging evidence rather than an absolute value. Fire History Detection of foraging residues can be inaccurate in areas where recent fire may have destroyed foraging residue. In addition, the subsequent growth of exotic grass following fire can further reduce detectability. Fire is likely to be a relevant factor for several survey localities in which recent fire history was inferred from presence of indicator species. © ECO LOGICAL AUSTRALIA PTY LTD 9 SEWP aC C ar na b y’ s C oc ka too H a bi ta t As s e ss me nt P er th- Pe el R e gi on Table 1: Survey locations and sample points Number of sample Number of points Banksia trees Survey locality assessed 1.

This includes feeding residues (chewed banksia flowers and pods counted) and foraging resources presented as tree and pod densities. 3. 1 F e edi ng R es idu e Foraging residue, as either fallen chewed Banksia pods or flowers, was found to be extensive with residue recorded at 24 of the 27 localities surveyed. Of the 1665 Banksia trees assessed during this survey, approximately 16 % of trees had some evidence of either recent or old banksia flower or pod residue. Very little of the foraging residue was chewed pods, with approximately 96 % of all residue recorded being fallen flower spikes. The amount of feeding residue recorded was variable both within individual sample locations as well as across the Perth – Peel landscape. Figures 8 and 9 and Table 3 show proportionately more Banksia flower residues recorded south of the Swan River with approximately 85 % compared to only 15 % in the north. Comparison of Banksia pod residues shows a more even banksia pod residue distribution of 56 and 44 % respectively.

Rockingham Lakes Regional Park Total 3. 2 F or ag ing R e sou rc e s Mean Banksia tree density, based primarily on B. attenuata and B.menziesii being the two dominant species, ranged from 266 to 534 trees per hectare across the localities surveyed. There was no difference in mean tree density between sites in the north compared to sites south of the Swan River. In comparison the mean Banksia pod density across the sites surveyed (Figure 3) showed a greater variability ranging from 5119 to 28022 pods per hectare between survey localities. Survey localities on the northern Swan Coastal Plain had comparatively lower mean pod density than sites south of the Swan River with 10724 compared to 16941 pods per hectare.

Table 3 provides an assessment of vegetation conformity with mapping, including foraging resource value as mean banksia tree and pod density, and foraging residue recorded. There was a high level of conformity of the mapped vegetation communities in terms of important foraging species for Carnaby’s Cockatoo. For the most extensive and dominant foraging plant groups, Banksias Eucalypts, these Genera were identified on-ground extensively within all sites where they have been previously mapped. Some inconsistency between mapped vegetation and on-ground assessment was found for vegetation communities mapped in lowland areas, or other areas of poor drainage. For example, sample points within Austin Bay Nature Reserve were recorded to have B.attenuata and B.menziesii present at a density of 487 trees per hectare. However the mapped vegetation description at the sample points is sedgelands with Banksia littoralis Low woodland, Melaleuca rhaphiophylla and scattered Eucalyptus gomphocephala. This description is accurate for much of the vegetation within Austin Bay Nature Reserve, however some patches of Carnaby’s Cockatoo foraging habitat occur and this non-conformity is likely to relate to mapping scale. The DEC Carnaby’s Cockatoo habitat modelling provides a broad scale but reliable tool for assessing foraging habitat; however there is some scope for enhancing the DEC vegetation mapping at finer scale based on soil and topography. This is likely to identify additional fine scale Carnaby’s Cockatoo foraging habitat within areas currently mapped as lacking in foraging plant species. © ECO LOGICAL AUSTRALIA PTY LTD 15 SEWP aC C ar na b y’ s H a bi ta t As s e ss me nt P erth -P e e l Re gi on Table 3: Validation of mapped vegetation types For localities having more than one vegetation type (VEGCODE) the mean foraging resource value is across the locality.

One potentially new roost site was identified within the Muchea west area (386760E 6512840N). Approximately 300 Carnaby’s Cockatoos were followed and observed settling down to roost within pine trees on the eastern edge of a large plantation bordering native Banksia woodland. This roost is located approximately 4.8 kilometres north of a known roost at the Pinjar Gas Turbine along the Pinjar – Cataby power line. This site is accessible from the south via Water Road. Another known roost is located approximately 2.4 kilometres south-east, and given their proximity these roosts might represent an extended roosting area, and this requires verification. No drinking water source was observed at the new location; however water is available at the turbine site. The only other possible roosting behaviour observed was a pair of Carnaby’s Cockatoos recorded opportunistically in the Stakehill area (385500E 6404500N). These birds appeared to be heading towards the Lakelands – Paganoni Swamp area and given the time of day, presumably they were heading towards their night roost. There does not appear to be a known roost in this location based on the 2012 Great Cocky Count (Kabat et.al 2012) although there are several potential or unconfirmed roosts in this area. © ECO LOGICAL AUSTRALIA PTY LTD 23 SEWP aC C ar na b y’ s H a bi ta t As s e ss me nt P erth -P e e l Re gi on Figure 5: Carnaby’s Cockatoo Foraging Residue Locations (chewed pods or cones) – Perth North © ECO LOGICAL AUSTRALIA PTY LTD 24 SEWP aC C ar na b y’ s C oc ka too H a bi ta t As s e ss me nt P er th- Pe el R e gi on Figure 6: Carnaby’s Cockatoo Foraging Residue Locations (chewed pods or cones) – Perth South © ECO LOGICAL AUSTRALIA PTY LTD 25 SEWP aC C ar na b y’ s C oc ka too H a bi ta t As s e ss me nt P er th- Pe el R e gi on Figure 7: Carnaby’s Cockatoo Foraging Residue Locations (chewed pods and cones) – Peel region © ECO LOGICAL AUSTRALIA PTY LTD 26 SEWP aC C ar na b y’ s H a bi ta t As s e ss me nt P erth -P e e l Re gi on Figure 8: Foraging Residue - Banksia flowers recorded © ECO LOGICAL AUSTRALIA PTY LTD 27 SEWP aC C ar na b y’ s C oc ka too H a bi ta t As s e ss me nt P er th- Pe el R e gi on Figure 9: Foraging Residue - Banksia pods quantities recorded © ECO LOGICAL AUSTRALIA PTY LTD 28 SEWP aC C ar na b y’ s C oc ka too H a bi ta t As s e ss me nt P er th- Pe el R e gi on Figure 10: Foraging Resource Estimates - mean Banksia tree density (trees/m2) © ECO LOGICAL AUSTRALIA PTY LTD 29 SEWP aC C ar na b y’ s C oc ka too H a bi ta t As s e ss me nt P er th- Pe el R e gi on Figure 11: Foraging Resource Estimates - mean Banksia pod density (pods/m2) © ECO LOGICAL AUSTRALIA PTY LTD 30 SEWP aC C ar na b y’ s C oc ka too H a bi ta t As s e ss me nt P er th- Pe el R e gi on 4 Discussion 4. 1 F e edi ng R es idu e s Carnaby’s Cockatoo is known to move west into the higher rainfall coastal areas following breeding (Saunders and Ingram 1995) with the seasonal arrival of large flocks commencing in late summer following fledging. Based on this movement pattern, it would be expected that substantial numbers of birds could be observed opportunistically across the Perth and Peel regions in autumn. This survey was carried out in March 2013, however during the survey no Carnaby’s Cockatoos were opportunistically observed foraging on native plant species. Further, only two pairs were observed south of the Swan River, which accounts for 17 of the 27 localities surveyed. The only foraging activity observed was within the northern pine plantations, and pine cone feeding residues were recorded throughout the surveyed area in large plantations, as well as from single and small stands of pine trees. Stock et.al (2013) determined cockatoos feed on exotic pine trees commencing in January or later, and peaking in April to May, coinciding with maturity of pine cones. Therefore this survey was carried out at a time when Carnaby’s Cockatoos are feeding intensively on pine cones. The timing of foraging residue surveys is likely to detect more foraging behaviour and more recent foraging evidence when food sources are ripe (or optimal for Carnaby’s Cockatoo) and when pine seeds are seasonally unavailable. This study was not intended to investigate pine trees as a foraging resource, however opportunistic searches of pine trees was carried out during the field assessment, and fresh foraging evidence on pine cones was noted at all areas where pines were checked. Given the significance of the pine plantations as a seasonal food source, patterns of Carnaby’s Cockatoo foraging activity are expected to change with the continual removal of most of Perth’s pine plantations. Based on the results, Carnaby’s Cockatoo foraging activity is geographically extensive within the PerthPeel region on B.attenuta and B.menziesii. In tern of foraging intensity, of the 1665 Banksia trees assessed during this survey, approximately 16 % of trees had some evidence of either recent or old banksia flower or pod residue. Additional data would be required to enable comparison allowing conclusions to be drawn about cockatoo spatial reliance of a foraging resource in a particular area or vegetation community. Carnaby’s Cockatoo range widely across the Perth – Peel region and availably food resourced are widely used, however usage will vary spatially and temporally due to many factors such as seasonal availability of both native and pines, together with the daily and annual movement patterns of Carnaby’s Cockatoos. The high number of B.attenuata flower residues recorded and some southern sites e.g. Nine Mile Lake, Rockingham and Jandakot, may be due to the more limited foraging resources in this highly fragmented landscape in comparison with the extensive Banksia woodlands occurring on the Northern Swan Coastal Plain. Even though there was a paucity of Carnaby’s Cockatoo presence during the survey, the recent and extensive foraging residue, particularly in some bushland areas south of the Swan River, indicates that Banksia attenuata flowers are a seasonally utilized source of food (nectar and invertebrates). A lack of foraging evidence recorded within areas supporting known CBC foraging species is unlikely to be an absolute indication of actual usage of that area. An absence of foraging activity can be attributed to other factors such as rainfall variability, fire or irregular foraging activity at a spatial or temporal level. © ECO LOGICAL AUSTRALIA PTY LTD 31 SEWP aC C ar na b y’ s C oc ka too H a bi ta t As s e ss me nt P er th- Pe el R e gi on 4. 2 F or ag ing R e sou rc e Some variability between sample locations in Banksia pod density is likely to be due to fire history, water stress and possibly Phytophthora dieback. Yanchep National Park showed the lowest mean pod density however it is unclear whether fire is the main reason for pod density variation because for many localities, the approximate time span since the last fire varied across respective localities and ranged from recently burned (within 12 months) to approximately 10 years unburned. However it is likely that a major factor effecting Banksia pod density is due to the variation in productivity and growth habit caused by soil, topography and local climate. This may explain the variation observed across the Perth – Peel area with Banksia attenuata at the northern extent (Muchea) appearing stunted and with few pods, compared with southern sites such as Rockingham Lakes Regional Park. Figures 10 and 11 indicate that Banksia tree density is less variable across the Perth and Peel regions, while Banksia pod density is far more variable and appears to be lower in northern areas. This indicates that areas with similar tree density may still have very different Banksia pod density. Whilst Banksia pod density provides an indication of the potential foraging resource availability, it may not directly translate to habitat value. Valentine and Stock (2008) have highlighted some limitations of comparing Carnaby’s Cockatoo food resources across banksia woodlands and provide some assumptions including uniformity of banksia woodland density, and variability of tree productivity and seed nutritional value. The data presented in this report shows highly variable density of both trees and productivity (pods and flowers). Estimates of tree density probably provide more reliable data than pod density estimates however pod density may provide more accurate foraging resource comparisons. 4. 3 V al id at io n of V ege t at i on Com mun iti e s The DEC Carnaby’s Cockatoo habitat modelling provides a broad scale but reliable tool for assessing the presence of foraging habitat. This is supported by the presence and density of foraging plant species, and by the identification of foraging residues within the vegetation communities surveyed. However, the results of this study show some inconsistency between mapped vegetation and on-ground assessment. This appears to be relevant to mapping scale for vegetation communities associated with wetland vegetation associations generally. There may be some scope for enhancing the habitat mapping via reviewing these at a desktop level at finer scale based on soil and topography. This is likely to identify some additional Carnaby’s Cockatoo foraging habitat on a finer scale. © ECO LOGICAL AUSTRALIA PTY LTD 32 SEWP aC C ar na b y’ s H a bi ta t As s e ss me nt P erth -P e e l Re gi on 5 Recommendations 5. 1 F urt he r da t a a na l ys i s Further data analysis of the data set provided by the study could be undertaken to compare the habitat values and usage such as banksia pod density and foraging residue presence compared between DEC mapped vegetation communities, or banksia pod density and foraging residue presence compared between sub-regions (Perth North, Perth South and Peel). 5. 2 Ad d it io na l su rv e ys Additional surveys for foraging residues could be undertaken in winter and spring.
