Australia is home to 56 species of parrot. Only five of these are found elsewhere in the world. There are 300 species of parrot worldwide. This exhibition celebrates all things parrots. Each art piece has a conservation story and a fact about the bird featured.

Yeti is a wildlife rescued yellow-tailed black cockatoo. He was hit by a car as baby. Although he has recovered from his injuries he is no longer able to be released back into the wild.

20% of sales will be donated to BirdLife Australia. The exhibition runs alongside National Bird Week – an initiative to get more Australians interested in birds.
