The Norfolk Island Green Parrot (Cyanoramphus cookii) Wild Breeding Project (2013-2014) dataset contains records of Green Parrot breeding success and survival rates per nesting site, including number of eggs laid, number of chicks hatched and number of chicks fledged. Records of sex composition are recorded as well as records of parental attendance and any nesting disturbance.

Purpose
Norfolk Island National Park and Norfolk Island Botanic Garden protects over 655 hectares of the remote Territory of Norfolk Island, set in the south-west Pacific Ocean. The Norfolk Island Green Parrot (Cyanoramphus cookii) is listed as Endangered under the EPBC Act. In 2013 a monitoring program commenced to investigate breeding biology to aid in the conservation of the Norfolk Island Green Parrot.
