Best Answer

Most Australian birds do not migrate. The main migratory Australian birds are certain species of ware birds such as albatrosses and shorebirds such as plovers, sandpipers, stints, curlews and snipes. Australia is also home to the world's only two migratory parrots: the Swift parrot and the Orange-bellied parrot, which migrate during winter from the cold state of Tasmania to the Australian mainland.
