Hi Dick
I have just come back from two weeks on Tas, including the east coast. Only
Moreporks I heard were away from the E Coast (Cradle Mtn - very distant
calling; and Sideling Range Lookout close to Launceston - calling in daylight
but not findable).
The team at Inala had no gen on recent Masked Owl roosts or sightings in the
area around their property on Bruny Is.
Cheers
Tom Wilson
