The University of the Sunshine Coast Sippy Downs campus is a flora and fauna reserve, spread over 100 hectares adjoining the Mooloolah River National Park. In 2013, the University became a Land for Wildlife reserve with the Sunshine Coast Council to further commit to managing a large proportion of the site as habitat for native plants and animals.

In this live stream, we can primarily hear the energetic dawn chorus of Rainbow Lorikeets in their favourite trees on campus. The UniSC Sunshine Coast campus is in the heart of the UNESCO recognised Sunshine Coast Biosphere Reserve.
