I have occasionally picked up birds in good condition which I take into the WA Museum. They have always been welcomed. At the very least they take measurements.

I write down the details (location, GPS, species, date, and some details if I know them) on a sheet of paper, and put the bird and details in a plastic bag and freeze them.

The person at the WA Museum to contact is Ron Johnstone. Ron has never mentioned anything about needing a permit or anything. Maybe because I have known him for some time, but I think that as long as your intention is clear then there are no problems in WA.
