EXTENSION OF THE KNOWN BREEDING RANGE OF THE SUPERB PARROT


Targeted surveys were undertaken in the area between Cowra and Dubbo in the spring of 2001 and 2002 in an attempt to determine the breeding season movement patterns and the northern most limit of the breeding range of the Superb Parrot, Polytelis swainsonii. This study found that the Superb Parrot was nesting in at least four locations between the Lachan River and Molong. This extends the known breeding range of ihe Superb Parrot to the north by approximately 75 kilometres.
