Chris,
I had a long zoom seize up on a trip recently. When I took it in to a
repair shop, they found that a screw had come loose and caused the
zoom to jam. They returned the screw in a bag with the recommendation
that I continue to use the lens until further problems developed, and
they would try to find where the screw had come from when they opened
it up.
Regards, Laurie.

Hi David,
another fantastic post. I always appreciate the photos of the
smaller fauna. Well done on researching so many species IDs right
across reptiles, inverts and flora.
If anyone is interested, I have 22 photos captured using a motion-
activated trail camera from near Adamsfield in Tasmania's south-west
(no birds), here: m("N02/sets/72157622694300236/","//www.flickr.com/photos/39169761");">http:
- we were happy to get a single Tassie devil photo (in response to
one of the comments after your photos) and the boxing wallabies
right in front of the lens were magic :)
When I head back next week I'll see what I can do to get photos,
particularly of birds so I can share them here and learn more about
Tassie's birdlife. Sadly my long lens has seized. If anyone has
something cheap and spare they can sell me for a Nikon D50 this week
- I'm in Sydney - let me know.
PS - one highlight of a previous trip to Tas was hearing a ground
parrot call as we walked past a small stand of shrubs :) and also
seeing the white form of the grey goshawk sitting in a tree but I
hit "record" on the video camera before it had fully warmed up, and
when I hit the button again to stop recording after it flew off,
realised I'd only then just started recording. Doh.
Cheers,
Chris.

Subject: [Birding-Aus] Eastern Tasmania
Hello all,
My wife and I are back from a quick trip to Tasmania. We spent most
of our time in the Hobart area but also headed up to Ben Lomond NP
and then the Bay of Fires region on the east coast. I did not see
any odd birds but was happy to find Swift Parrots at Mt. Knocklofty
in Hobart and then up at the start of the Pinnacles Track on Mt.
Wellington.
I prepared a post of habitat, flowers and reptiles that may interest
some of you:
