Gehrr is the Bandjalang word for Glossy Black-Cockatoos.

 

Minyumai IPA is a key project site for the Glossies Northern Rivers conservation partnership between WWF-Australia, NSW DPE Saving our Species and Wildbnb Wildlife Habitat.

 

Glossies Northern Rivers is mapping known feed trees, identifying birds and flock regions, finding nests, roosting and watering sites and establishing artificial hollow sites across the 22,000 square km Northern Rivers Region which spans Bundjalung Country.

 

At Minyumai, seven hollows specifically designed for Gehrr have been installed within a known feed tree site. These hollows are monitored each month, together with identifying feeding activity and observing birds and their behaviours.

 

The Gehrr project is a Minyumai IPA partnership with Wildbnb Wildlife Habitat.
