Day 1 – Platypus, Birdwatching & Quoll Patrol Tours in Tasmania
As part of our birdwatching tours in Tasmania, either self-drive to Scottsdale or Pepper Bush transfer from Launceston for an early afternoon tour departure. Departing Scottsdale, we explore an array of forests and bird habitats to discover a variety of forest and woodland birds on the way via the Roses Tier forests to the Tyne Valley for a campfire dinner with the kangaroos. Relax by the campfire as our field of dreams comes alive with eastern quolls, brush-tail possums and Tasmanian pademelons visiting the campfire as wallabies and wombats graze close-by.
