It is January 2020. Sydney is full of smoke and full of birds. In an innercity park, near a pond, corellas scratch the crispy grass looking for a feed. Ibis are ever present, but their number has multiplied. A tiny nature reserve only a few kms from the CBD is now home to magpies, currawongs, owls, pelicans and ravens. For the past month a friend has been sending daily photos of a previously uninhabited sandstone escarpment opposite her balcony where a flock of more than a hundred sulphur crested cockatoos has taken up residence.

特刊社论：“城市重组生态”

2020年1月，悉尼烟雾缭绕，鸟语花香。在靠近池塘的市内公园里，珊瑚草在松脆的草丛中寻找食物。宜必思一直存在，但它们的数量成倍增加。距离中央商务区仅几公里的一个小型自然保护区现在是喜鹊、鸬鹚、猫头鹰、鹈鹕和乌鸦的家园。在过去的一个月里，一位朋友每天都在发送她阳台对面一个以前无人居住的砂岩悬崖的照片，那里有一百多只硫凤头鹦鹉栖息在这里。
