Fantastic Scenery, but if David is wanting to make it a birding
expedition, too, then Tassie High Country is not going to 'deliver
the goods' (or at least not many). I could point you to lots of more
productive places, but perhaps not as spectacular for a 'rite of
passage' walk.

nothofagus will be golden [very alpine] or the peaks will be

Dear fellows birders,
next year two of my friends want us to walk the overland track in
Tasmania (Cradle Mountain Lake St Clair) for one of those
milestone birthdays (40). I think it is a great idea but I can't
seem to convince them to go to Broome and the kimberley instead.
They are not birders and the Broome Bird Observatory means nothing
to them. I like Tasmania but I was wondering: can anyone tell me
if there is good birding on this track? I have walked it before
and it was a lovely walk but not as 'birdy' as I had hoped.
Perhaps I was not paying enough attention? It was twelve years
ago. I remember mud and rain and little delicate mosses,
toadstools, some rain, sassafras, wombats and wallabies and iron
bark flowers on the path.
regards,

PS I can't convince them to do the South Coast Track - already asked.
