Birds Australia has a growing number of educational resources for all ages. Cockatoo Island is a fun way for primary aged kids to learn about democracy by taking part in a Parliament of Birds.  The Red-tailed Black-Cockatoo Education Kit leads late secondary school students through the process of identifying a species at risk, to identifying its threats and developing recovery actions. Play the Remnants Game to discover which farm attributes are best for birds. Wingspan supplements cover the latest on the major threats to birds, such as inappropriate fire management, invasive species, woodland loss, water issues and climate change.  For information on shorebirds, their migration, important sites, conservation and more, check the Shorebirds Conservation Toolkit. Go to Birds in Backyards, Birdata and Cockatoo Island for species profiles. Listen to a sample of australian bird calls, read about Albatross conservation issues and don't forget to check the other information about birds under the Birds menu.
