☀️𝗢𝗹𝘆𝗺𝗽𝗶𝗰 𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗺𝘀 𝗼𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 - 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸?🦅Never did we think we would be posting not one, but two cockatoo posts in one morning, but here we are, quite unexpectedly reporting on the humble cockatoo being the inspiration behind our Brisbane 2032 official emblems. 🍍The reveal of the emblems was due for release on Monday following a state road trip whereby pieces of the emblems were revealed at Queensland locations, however a video explaining the emblems was released early, with the cat, or rather cockatoo, now out of the bag! 🏖️Official details from the organising committee state the emblems are “distinctive, unmistakably Queensland and just a little bit cheeky.” “Inspired by our reef, beaches, hinterland and everything in between, they bring together the places, people and spirit that will take us to 2032.” 🤔Let us know what you think of the official emblems in the comments below 👇 📸Official Brisbane 2032 ...

🦅𝗕𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗖𝗼𝗰𝗸𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗼𝘀- 𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝘆 - 𝗬𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗿 𝗻𝗼?We’ve had quite a few sightings of black cockatoos around Coolum Beach recently and many believe that when these native birds fly low and call out, rain is on the way. ▪️In First Nations cultures, these magnificent birds hold incredibly deep spiritual meaning as ancestors, guides, and guardians of Country. Many traditional stories across Australia connect them to the changing seasons - recognising them as ancient messengers. ▪️Depending on which ones you spot, the traditional meanings and lore change:💛 Yellow-tailed & Glossy Blacks: (The ones we usually see around our Casuarina trees). Their deep cries are widely tied to water, renewal, and calling down the rain.🔥 Red-tailed Blacks: Their bright, fiery bands traditionally symbolise immense strength, energy, and vitality. ❓have you spotted them around town this week? And more importantly... do you think they’re right about the weather? Drop your photos and sightings in the comments below! 👇👇📸Peter Madden #CoolumBeach #SunshineCoast #BlackCockatoos #LocalWildlife #BushFolklore #DiscoverSunshineCoast ... See MoreSee Less
