‘Eastern Ground Parrots – probably fewer than 20 – were thought to survive in the area of wallum heath in Noosa National Park and Mt Coolum National Park.’

James Muller returns to Floating Land with another ambitiously-scaled project steeped in the story of the region. Three towering feathers echoing the markings of the Eastern Ground Parrot stand to attention amid the scattered ground cover through which the Park Road Boardwalk weaves its path.
Another iconic local species on the verge of extinction, Muller directs our attention to its plight though statuesque quills whose scale somehow emphasises the fragility and diminishing size of the species population.
