SUMMARY:Conserving and Creating a Future for Kyloriny- the Critically Endangered Western Ground Parrot
DESCRIPTION:Dr Sarah Comer is the Regional Ecologist for DBCA’s South Coast Region\, a position she has been privileged to work in for over 25 years. Sarah’s work is focused on conservation: implementing threatened species recovery programs\, monitoring and management of native species\, and integrating invasive predator management\, fire ecology and science into management of biodiversity in the region. Sarah is the chair of the South Coast Threatened Birds Recovery Team\,  which oversees the implementation of recovery actions for Kyloriny. \n\n\n\n\n\nKyloriny\, the cryptic Western Ground Parrot (Pezoporus flaviventris) is teetering on the edge of extinction. With an estimated population of < 150 birds\, Kyloriny occurs in a single wild population on the south coast of Western Australia\, and a small number of birds are housed at Perth Zoo. At risk from bushfire and predation from the invasive feral cat\, establishing a second wild population is a priority. \n\n\n\nPhoto: B.Barrett\, DBCA \n\n\n\n\nThe ecology of the species is not well understood\, and the decision to implement a wild-wild conservation translocation was challenging. Taking birds for translocation\, with no guarantees of success\, was explored in depth through a collaborative assessment of the complex risks\, assessing habitat potential in the face of a drying climate and management capacity. With the first stage of this project completed there is optimism that the risk of taking birds from the last population were worthwhile\, but ongoing interventions will be required to maximise the chances of establishment of a new population.  \n\n\n\nAt the completion of the first three years of translocation effort project partners have now come together to work through a Structured Decision-Making process that has captured diverse perspectives from conservation professionals\, traditional custodians and project partners. This work has mapped a clear path for the next steps in conservation efforts for Kyloriny\, which can be approached with some confidence. Here we share some of the challenges and rewards of an adaptive and collaborative approach to conservation of this enigmatic parrot.

SUMMARY:GOLLY WALK-JOONDAKAMMER: A CABINET OF CURIOSITY FOR JOONDALUP
DESCRIPTION:Our excursion today will highlight the natural history of the City of Joondalup in a most unusual way. After a short walk from Neil Hawkins Park through the bushland of Lakeside Park and Centennial Park we will visit the Joondalup library for a personal explanation by Dr Perditta (Perdy) Phillips of her Joondakammer. \nPerdy\, the daughter of Club stalwart\, Margaret Larke\, created Joondakammer: A cabinet of curiosity for Joondalup\, after being awarded the City’s major Visual Arts Commission in 2022. \n Her work was inspired by early museums that housed artefact collections in cabinets of curiosity or Wunderkammer\, which inspired the content and name of the new artwork. \nThe artwork consists of a wooden cabinet\, complete with abalone shell inlays and filled with specimens found from the Joondalup region\, including pinecones\, nuts\, feathers\, bones\, soil and other objects including a xylotheque. What’s a xylotheque? Join us to find out. \n“It is a true museum for Joondalup\,” the artist said. “I visited many parks and areas where natural lives still carry on – from beaches and sand dunes to bushland and the swampy shores of Lake Joondalup”. \nWe will have refreshments at a local patisserie before returning to our vehicles.
