Surveying is one of the most important things people can do to help the Orange-bellied Parrot, and everyone is welcome. Here are the contact details of the winter survey coordinators for 2014.
The map below shows winter survey areas in South Australia and Victoria.
Depending on the location, surveyors search saltmarshes, dunes, paddocks, estuaries and sewage farms for OBPs. This helps our scientists understand what habitats they use on the mainland, which guides land management for the OBP.
Everyone is welcome, from beginners to experienced birdwatchers. You will be given guidelines and tips, and placed in groups with various levels of expertise.
Please read Birdlife Australia's Search Tips & Techniques guide and this brochure on identifying the Orange-bellied Parrot.
