  • The swift parrot is ranked 35th on the 2021 bird of the year list, disappointing bird enthusiasts.
  • The eastern koel is a controversial bird that people either love or hate, known for its loud cooing sound.
  • Emus are an important part of Australia's ecosystem, distributing seeds of native plants.
  • The black swan holds symbolic meaning and was historically seen as something unlikely, similar to a flying pig.
  • Threats to the swift parrot include habitat destruction due to logging in Tasmania and New South Wales.

An Australian community for everything from your backyard to beyond the black stump.

Topics may include Aussie plants and animals, environmental, farming, energy, and climate news and stories (mostly Aus specific), etc. New related communities will be split off when required, think like subcommunities that exist on that other platform.

Trigger Warning: Community contains mostly bad environmental news (not by choice!). Community may also feature stories about animal agriculture and/or meat. Until tagging is available, please be aware and click accordingly.
