Thank you.What a wonderful idea to encourage the local community to grow yellowwood trees.

[@lynetterudman]

Absolutely! It is a successful story that is benefitting the local community and the parrots, in the long run.

Very interesting. I think it is time to consider re- introducing Cape Parrots into the Alexandria forest. They were most prolific there in the past until shot to extinction. There are numerous mature yellowwood trees in the forest which makes it a most suitable habitat for the birds.

I agree!
