Bird’s Life in Tasmania

Pacific Gulls

These two Pacific gulls have decided to own the beach. They parade around as though it belongs to them.  They are quite a cool seabird that frequents the coastal areas of Tasmania.

Mother’s Love

While walking along one of the many bushwalks beside the Derwent River, Hobart, this mother duck was proudly taking her babies for a paddle. She has been quite successful in keeping predators away from her brood.

Native Pigeons

I encountered these two Tasmanian native pigeons mating in the middle of the road. The male was very proud of his effort and strutted around while the female appeared totally disinterested.
