Collisions with windows
Between 5-10 Green Parrots have been reported dead in the past 12 months, most of which are a result of window collisions (R. Ward pers.comm.) The number may have increased in the past 5 years coinciding with an increased number of sightings of Green Parrots outside the park. Most of the birds are juveniles, however, some adults have been killed. With such a small population this mortality is significant and attempts are and should continue to be made to reduce it.
