And if you take into account the whole forest drive, will opportunities for waders and sea birds at either end - especially Orford end - and some of the other diverese habitat getting to and from Weilangta, it has certainly given us some of our most productive birding. And still, lots of people we talk to don't know where it is!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18783751.post-1152827338506289532006-07-14T07:48:00.000+10:002006-07-14T07:48:00.000+10:00Thanks for your comments John.

Although I only posted the Pink Robin, I was trying to make the point that this spot 'houses' a good spread of, for some, the most difficult of the endemics to find and I saw them from within a few metres of the same spot. It is rather further out than Fern Tree though and I sometimes wish there was rather more direct access from Hobart!BirdingTashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08341646998037894004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18783751.post-1152795966174158032006-07-13T23:06:00.000+10:002006-07-13T23:06:00.000+10:00Alan,I think the shots of the Pink Robin look terr...Alan,<BR/>I think the shots of the Pink Robin look terrific, even for low light. We have seen them here, too, and also at the Sandspit River Nature Walk, nearby. These are some of the most reliable spots for Pink Robins we've found. Further to your posting recently on the BROWN Pink Robin at Bellerive, we saw two today at Meehan Range (along with LOTS of Yellow-throats, and others), so the Juveniles are certainly out and about. Not nearly as stunning as these guys, though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
