Night Parrot Stories

A Mysterious Australian Bird

In the remote deserts of Australia lives an elusive nocturnal bird called the Night Parrot. Virtually nothing is known of its ecology as it's disappeared at the end of the 19th Century. Searching for evidence of its existence became a preoccupation.

NIGHT PARROT STORIES was filmed in all the locations where Night Parrots once lived, during a time when stories of extinction were everywhere.
