Thank you for showing these magnificent little ones, explaining their history, discussing their challenges, and sharing the encouragibg developments. It's heartening to know about the station families and the other people who care for them. Though the trees are having difficulties, are the saltbushes thriving? I couldn't quite tell.
Thanks for your comments. Yes the saltbushes (and bluebushes too) do very well. Saltbush is eaten by every animal out there... and there are plenty of feral animals eating them as well... so they are low/stunted but surviving. 🤞🤞 for some rain this season
I been raising Australian keets since 1979. Budgies, Cockatiels, Princess, Red Capped, Red Rumps, Scarlet Chested, Mulga. Never seen a live Blue Bonnet! Thanks for awesome video!👍👍👍
Yes it is a bit sad that so few know about Australian bluebonnets. There are 4 types and the naretha, though still limited in captivity, would have to be the easiest of the 4 to keep in captivity. None in any zoos or wildlife parks which is a concern considering the wild birds situation
@@birdmandad6426 Wow I hope some are in a breeding program. Do the sugar gliders rob the nest like with the Swift Parakeets? Are the Swifts doing better? Thanks!

I used to live in Rawlinna my dad was the Roadmaster and my mum the nursing sister in Rawlinna, my dad used to talk about the Naretha parrot
I would imagine they saw many of them there in the day. If you want to share any of their naretha yarns would love to hear them
