Carnabys Cockatoo Confirmed Roost Sites Buffered 6km (DBCA-052)

Carnaby's Black Cockatoo (CBC) confirmed Roost sites buffered. A confirmed site is a site where CBC were recorded roosting as part of a formal roost survey (using the Great Cocky Count method in which birds are recorded as they settle, 30 minutes either side of sunset), as described by Berry (2008). Buffering was done to cover roost movement and recording accuracy. Roosts were buffered to 6km to indicate the likely feeding area of the roost. This layer should be used in conjunction with associated feeding, breeding and roosting data layers described in the Methods for Mapping Carnaby's Cockatoo Habitat report.
