Hi Peter,
I've long since given up saying anything is "dead cert" in birding!
However,
Male Pink Robins should be "pretty likely" along the Snug Falls Track
at Snug, south of Hobart, or along the Sandspit River Walk in the
Weilangta SF between Orford and Copping.
There are lots of Forest Ravens around alomst everywhere, but don't
know where best for 'Tame' ones. Black Currawongs are annoyingly tame
at the lunch stop on the Arthur River cruise, and used to be at Lake
St. Clair (though they've been encouraging tourists NOT to feed them,
so don't know now.
The last Masked Owl site I knew of confidently was a couple of years
ago, now, so may be still there, but maybe not. It was about 1km or
so up the Truganinni track between the Channel Highway and Mt Nelson,
south of Hobart. The track comes right down into the bed of the dry
creek, and there is an old green 'sighn' post (sign gone) in the creek
bed. The bird used to roost there, or up to 20m back down stream in
small trees over the creek. Check for whitewash on the rocks, if
they're about.
And "Weka"?? not sure what that is! I think it may be a NZ bird!
Happy Tas birding,
John Tongue
Ulverstone, Tas.

Is anyone able to suggest a dead cert site for Male Pink Robins in
Tasmania?
I'm also after good locations for tame Forest Ravens and Black
Currawongs,
current Masked Owl sites and are Weka seen regularly anywhere?
Any help appreciated
Cheers,
Peter
