Great Cocky Count Workshops

Get Ready for the Great Cocky Count!

Before you head out to take part in the Great Cocky Count, join one of our  workshops happening across Perth and south-west WA.

These sessions will give you everything you need to feel confident on Count night. You’ll learn about:

• The fascinating biology and behaviour black-cockatoos
• The key threats they face — and why your data matters
• Exactly how the Great Cocky Count works
• What to look for and how to record your observations

Whether you’re a first-time volunteer or a seasoned counter, these workshops are the perfect way to prepare and connect with other cocky enthusiasts.

Upcoming workshops will be listed here, as well as on the BirdLife WA Facebook page and through the BirdLife WA eNews. Click the links below to learn more and register.
