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:
