Carnaby's Black Cockatoo is a large bird native to southwestern Australia. It is easily recognized by its striking black plumage and distinctive white cheek patches. These cockatoos primarily feed on seeds from native plants, particularly Banksia species, and are known for their loud, raucous calls. This species is classified as endangered due to habitat loss and degradation, primarily from urban development and agriculture. Conservation efforts are underway to protect their remaining habitats and ensure the survival of Carnaby's Black Cockatoo in the wild.
