They're back! It's been noted that at least 16 OBPs have arrived at their 
summer breeding grounds in Tasmania. 
Here's the chair of the Recovery Team, Mark Holdsworth, on Hobart radio:

Secondly, a new charity has been formed to help fund research and other 
conservation programs.
Birders are invited to donate to the Wildcare Save the OBP fund:

Donations over $2 are tax-deductible, and over $1000 has already been pledged.
Lastly, 'Save the Orange-bellied Parrot' is a Facebook page featuring news and 
views about this most lovely of threatened birds:
