Wangolina Station supports the recovery program for the Orange-bellied Parrot. This beautiful but very rare bird occasionally visits Wangolina during winter after winging its way from its breeding ground in the south western corner of Tasmania.

So, as you enjoy the Wangolina Station wine, we hope that you will feel a part of our effort to save one of Australia’s most endangered parrots. For more information on the Orange-bellied parrot, please visit the Bird's Australia website.
