That time I chased swift parrots in Tas with ⁦Dr SWIFT PARROT⁩. So fun but, at the same time, I was heartbroken by the state of things. So much habitat lost, a species verging on extinction. We need to do better. #BirdOfTheYear

A little video I did of the Jack Snipe, it's was a bit hard, hand holding the big 600mm lens. The world's smallest snipe #jacksnipe #wader #bird s #bird #TwitterNatureCommunity #TwitterNaturePhotography #Snipe #UAE #bird ing #bird watching #wader watch #BirdofTheYear

The WINNER of The Guardian Australia/BirdLife Australia's 2023 Bird of the Year poll is... The Swift Parrot!

Step aside Taylor – there's a new Swift taking Australia by storm. With 11,171 votes, the Swift Parrot has been crowned as your #BirdoftheYear for 2023.

In light of our beloved Bittern and the glorious Glossy falling short of the shortlist, we might have to jump aboard the #TeamGangGang train.

The Tawny Frogmouth is this year's runner-up in the #bird oftheyear competition, a great result for one of my favourite birds! #drawing #bird #art #bird art #pencilart

Tawny frogmouth mood.
Not happy at coming second in this year's Bird of the Year comp.

And the Guardian/BirdLife Australia #birdoftheyear winner is...

Congrats swifties! The people have spoken in the 2023 Guardian Australia BirdLife Australia Bird of the Year vote - fraudulent turkeys, birds soaring and diving into the finals, it’s been quite exciting.

Please help protect swift parrots - there’s only a few hundred left! #BirdofTheYear

We love all the birds. Loud ones, tiny ones, swoopy ones. #birdoftheyear
