Carl’s Cockatoo Corridor
Status: Acquisition in Progress
Carl’s Cockatoo Corridor is Gulmarrad’s last stronghold for the nationally Vulnerable listed Glossy Black Cockatoos.
The old-growth, hollow-bearing trees and densely diverse flora are some of the last in the region. In a time of drastic loss of biodiversity, we play a vitally important role in the survival of our beloved wildlife, as they do in ours.

Welcome to a haven for Glossy Black Cockatoos
Carl’s Cockatoo Corridor is a 6 acre property of highly diverse eucalypt forest threatened by subdivision and clearing. Situated in the coastal suburb of Gulmarrad, NSW, it is home to over 73 plant species, many old growth trees providing over 40 hollows of all sizes for more than 65 species of fauna, including the NSW Vulnerable Rufous Bettong, Squirrel Glider, Powerful Owl, Barking Owl, Grey-Crowned Babbler, Square-Tailed Kite, and White-Bellied Sea-Eagle along with a Critically Endangered Population of Coastal Emu and the Vulnerable, EPBC listed Glossy Black Cockatoo.
“There would be no better way than saving one of our Glossy Black Cockatoo’s last stronghold, to send the message far and wide that, working together, vendors and communities can reach positive conservation outcomes, benefiting everyone. Let’s save this important habitat for generations to come.”
