The Night Parrot

for the Night Parrot

Critically Endangered

By Kate, age 11

The Night Parrot is endangered because of the invasive predators, like feral cats, altered fire cycles, and habitat loss from livestock overgrazing in remote arid spinifex grasslands. I drew this bird portrait in colour pencils and applied multiple layers of bright colors. Hope people could start taking care of this wonderful species.
