The wider sides of the box show an Australian pelican and the narrower sides show an other bird that I can not identify.

The box is located between Fogarty park and the Pacific International Hotel where our Canadian group was staying.

A plaque on the concrete base reads

"A Community contribution by
Cr. Blake Cr. Freebody Cr. James"

About 1 hour later while walking on the Cairns promenade, I saw for the first time a family of Australian pelicans (see my pictures). They are quite different from those I saw in America.
