Protect Swift Parrots Forever
Protect Swift Parrots Forever
Swift Parrots are incredible birds who migrate every year from their nesting trees in Tasmania across the Bass Strait chasing flowering gum trees to feed on across south-eastern mainland Australia. But they have been on a perilous decline over the past few decades, with the latest research estimating that their effective population is 750 but could be as few as 300 birds.
Last summer’s bushfires took a terrible toll on the NSW south coast Spotted Gum forests, one of the most important mainland feeding sites for Swift Parrots, with over a third impacted by the fires.
Protecting their remaining forest homes is a conservation priority but it will require action from the NSW Government.
Contact your NSW State MPs to urge them to oppose logging in our Swift Parrots’ forest homes.
