They died of boredom from watching too much golf! Sorry for the friviolity,
I could not resist. ;-)

Sorry for this also if it's a dumb question - what's a "Carnaby's Cockatoo"
anyway? The picture looks like a White-tailed Black Cockatoo to me, but they
are only a W.A. species aren't they, not a QLD one (as Seven news classified
that story)? Googling for "Carnaby's Cockatoo" turns up this page
http://www.birdswa.com.au/projects/carnaby/Carnabys.htm which confirms the
same species Calyptorhynchus latirostris.

The only "Hopetoun" that Google maps turns up is in Victoria, further
confusing the matter.
