All of them. They sell them in pet stores.

Thanks, they probably sell everywhere since they're the friendliest birds. What's their native habitat? Which state are there many in the wild?

As in sand and ocean? I think they are beautiful, but I'm afraid of tsunamis.

In Australia, we have tons of beaches. I like Glenelg's beach.

There seems to be high population density just 50 miles northwest of Brisbane, What's out there?

Nothing in particular. I think that map (birddata from birdsaustralia) is a map of reported sightings. It could be there are more birdwatchers in that area :? (which I think is Ipswich).

btw, most of the coast is safe from tsunamis. The southern ocean is not an earthquake zone and if there was an undersea earthquake to the south, most of the south east coast is sheltered by Tasmania. Most of the east coast is sheltered by either NZ or the Great Barrier Reef. I don't believe a tsunami has been known to have ever hit Australia.

If it's QLD you're interested in, I'd live up the highlands there to get away from the summer heat anyway, you'd be far enough from the coast and high enough to not worry about tsumanis. You'd get a cold-ish winter with that but that's ok, you can't have everything. I think Toowoomba is one of the bigger highland towns, 90 mins from brisbane. I haven't been there though. Property prices have shot up in QLD the last decade.
