Wasn't a feral duck the commonwealth games mascot? ; )

Good to see the  Red-tailed Black Cockatoo reclaiming focus!

[Birding-Aus] Saving Red-tailed Black Cockatoos (Karak)






Dear All
I thought this may be of interest to you all.

The Judith Eardley Save the Wildlife Association and Trust For Nature are 
staging a Torch of Concern for Wildlife relay to raise funds for saving 
the endangered, Commonwealth Games mascot, Karak the Red-tailed Black 
Cockatoo.  The relay will start in Healesville and finish at Casterton in 
SW Victoria.  The torch will contain only one word HELP.

Donvale Christian College is currently hosting the torch.  The College's 
environmental group is having a number of fundraising activities during 
this week.  The Judith Eardley Save the Wildlife Association is matching 
contributions, dollar for dollar, with the aim of raising enough money to 
buy 2-3 properties in SW Victoria.  Trust For Nature will manage these 
properties once they are purchased.

My environmental group would like to encourage any Birding-Aus members to 
donate to this worthy fundraiser.  Donations of $2 and over are tax 
deductible.  To receive a tax receipt, a cheque must be made out to Trust 
For Nature.  I would like any donors to send me their donations so that 
they can be included in the College's contribution.  For more information 
me on ph 0409090955.  Cheques can be sent to me c/- Donvale Christian 
College, 155 Tindals Rd, Donvale, 3111.




Yours in all things "green"

Regards
