RFI: Some Tassie species

Hi John, We had Satin Flycatcher quite near Hobart Airport at Meehan Reserve. Your best bet for most of the other species is Bruny Island. You might get Forty-spotted Pardalote at Peter Murrell Reserve (near Kingston). We’ve seen Blue-winged Parrot only on the west coast. This youTube clip of our Tasmanian birding film may be of some help. It’s at this link: http://bit.ly/Ixy0zx Good luck!

We’re heading to Melaleuca tomorrow morning, staying overnight, then back in Hobart (all going to plan!) for Monday arvo, Tuesday, then heading home Wednesday. Key species we’re still chasing: Forty-spotted Pardalote Strong-billed Honeyeater – should bump this somewhere Morepork Swift Parrot Also OBP but hopefully we’ll be ok for this at Melaleuca Other targets missing Musk Lorikeet (?airport) Blue-winged Parrot Masked Owl Olive Whistler Satin Flycatcher Flame Robin European Greenfinch (shhhh) I may also have a few hours at the airport on Wednesday, so any handy spots near the airport would also be useful Thanks in advance John Sent from my iPhone
