 The birds may be found in a variety of habitats including grassy woodland , riparian forest , heathland , subalpine areas , pine plantations , and occasionally in urban areas , as long as there is a plentiful food supply . They have also spread to parts of suburban Sydney , particularly on or near golf courses , pine plantations and parks , such as Centennial Park in the eastern suburbs . It is unclear whether this is adaptive or because of loss of habitat elsewhere . In urban Melbourne , they have been recorded at Yarra Bend Park . The so @-@ called " Black Saturday bushfires " in 2009 appear to have caused sufficient loss of their natural habitat for them to have been sighted in other parts if the urban areas of Melbourne as well .
