Critically endangered Swift Parrots have lost over half of their only breeding habitat on Earth, with native forest logging the primary force behind this destruction. Governments know the science, yet logging continues. 🦜To mark #NationalScienceWeek, we’ve just released our new report, ‘Swift Parrots at risk: Forestry Tasmania’s constant assault’.

The critically-endangered swift parrot needs your help. 🦜 It's one of the world's fastest parrots (clocked at 88km/h!), and one of only two to breed solely in lutruwita / Tasmania. Now, their home—the most mature strand of blue gums in the world is at risk from destructive logging. Help us call for an immediate moratorium on logging swift parrot habitat and make Lonnavale Forests (south-west of nipaluna / Hobart) a Swift Parrot Important Breeding Area. wilderness.org.au/act-swiftly | The Wilder

Swift parrots are settling in our Tasmanian forests to breed and raise the next generation of this critically endangered species. Forestry Tasmania has been straight on their back and started to log their habitat. Today we took action and logging halted. We will be back to defend their forests and want you to join us. | Bob Brown Foundation

🔊 Watch and listen as Swift Parrots call from a forest that Forestry Tasmania still plans to log, even after we’ve recorded and reported this critically endangered species nesting here. Environment Minister Murray Watt’s bill to amend Australia’s environment laws keeps native forest logging exempt, allowing destruction to continue and pushing this species even closer to extinction. Swift Parrots only breed in Lutruwita / Tasmania. Every forest that supports Swift Parrots needs to be left standi

Swift Parrots are back in Lutruwita / Tasmania 🦜 Each year they make the long migration from the mainland to breed and each year, more of their forests are gone. Forestry Tasmania is logging the very habitat these critically endangered birds depend on to survive. Since 2014, they’ve lost over half their only breeding forests, with native forest logging the biggest driver. We’re on the ground defending habitat with frontline actions and running citizen science surveys to document Swift Parrots i

Good news for swifties! Swift parrot chicks were successfully fledged in nearly 70% of nests monitored by the Landscape Recovery Foundation in the most recent breeding season. 🐣 Swift Parrots breed in Tasmania during spring/summer – during this time, these critically endangered birds have to compete with a number of species for tree hollows and food. With support from the Australian Government’s Saving Native Species program, the Landscape Recovery Foundation have been managing glider predation

Swift Parrot fans unite – we need your help! The Critically Endangered Swift Parrot is spiralling toward extinction due to Australia’s flawed nature laws👎 Even though the government has a recovery plan to help Swifties, it won't work unless we have strong national laws in place to stop the logging of critical Swifty habitat.
