Hi Frank and John,
I also think there are a few records of White-throated Treecreeper in
Tasmania (which are not on your state list). Perhaps these are
unconfirmed? (Is there a formal process for confirming record in TAS?)
John you may know more about the Treecreeper than I do.
Cheers,
Tim Dolby

Hi Frank,
I may be wrong, but as far as I am aware, all Kookaburras in Tas.
originate from introductions. Someone with better knowledge than
mine may be able to say differently.
