You have a truly beautiful blog. The photos are so clear. I lived in OZ for many years and recognized several birds which I once knew well. I have been to Tassie and it is truly unique and lovely. For anyone into nature, beauty, photography this site has it. It's also interesting and well laid out. Great job!
