Great orange bellied parrot, bright in colours

In the southwest of Tasmania, where the sun shines bright
There lives a parrot, a colourful sight
With feathers of orange, so vibrant and bold
The orange bellied parrot is a story to be told
Munching seeds and fruits with a beak like a knife
It sounds like it’s having the time of its life
The orange bellied breeds deep in October
As it drops some food to the nest down over
But wait, this parrot faces a grave plight,
For its amount is dwindling, causing great fright.
With climate change threatening its delicate existence,
We must act and show our persistence.
