The Maryborough-Dunolly Box-Ironbark Region includes all the box-ironbark forest and woodland remnants used as winter feeding habitat by swift parrots in the Maryborough-Dunolly region of central Victoria, south-eastern Australia. The 900 km2 region was identified by BirdLife International as an Important Bird Area (IBA) and includes several nature reserves, state parks and state forests, with only a few small blocks of private land. It excludes adjacent areas of woodland that are less suitable for the parrots.[1]
The region was identified as an Important Bird Area (IBA) because, when the flowering conditions are suitable it supports up to about 250 non-breeding swift parrots. It is also home to a small population of diamond firetails.[2] Other woodland birds recorded from the IBA include painted honeyeaters, brown treecreepers, speckled warblers, hooded robins, crested bellbirds and Gilbert's whistlers, with migrant black honeyeaters and pink robins seen occasionally.[1]
