Orange-bellied Parrots and Swift Parrots

A small number of juvenile swift parrots have been known to overwinter on the north coast of Tassie in some years, however as far as I am aware there isn't any official documentation of this.

Can anyone tell if some individuals of Orange-bellied Parrots and Swift
Parrots overwinter in Tasmania?  If so then could I be directed to a
reference.  Thanks
