I will away for a week in Tasmania between 26th December and
3rd January. I will be staying with a friend at Longford (near Launceston in the
northern part of the state). Although I have been able to get information
on where to find the 12 endemics, any additional information on where to find
them will be most welcome, especially in the northern part of the state. I would
also like to know where there are any fairly reliable spots for
Blue-winged Parrots, Pink Robins and
Striated Fieldwrens. Are there also any accessible spots to see
Orange-bellied Parrots (without flying out to Melaleuca).
Finally, I would like to do some sea watching from the coast
(since It may be hard to go on a pelagic during this time) and would like to
know what areas may be ideal to do so. Are there places where
Common Diving Petrels, White-chinned Petrels
and Grey Petrels can be sighted from
land.
Thanks
Edwin
