Hi,
I just want to let you know about a short animated film and webpage I've
created about Baudin's and Carnaby's Cockatoos, called 'A Tale of Two
Cockatoos' http://cockatoos.treehugger.com.au/
As part of my PhD studies, I have been investigating how Australian society
values Baudin's and Carnaby's and have discovered why Carnaby's is favoured
over Baudin's.
This research was funded by The Nature Conservancy Applied Conservation Award
2011 and I wanted to use some of those funds to develop a communication
strategy to raise public awareness of the plight of the two cockatoo species as
well as help people find practical ways to get involved in conservation
efforts. A Tale of Two Cockatoos is the result.
The Nature Conservancy are promoting the film and webpage on their
international science blog and Australian Facebook page.

I hope you enjoy the film and will consider distributing it to your networks
and/or embedding the video on your website or social media page.
Many thanks,
Gill
