A Documentary on the beautiful birds and wildlife of Tasmania’s wilderness areas.

Includes rare footage of the endemic Scrubtit and many other species of the Apple isle.

This short documentary documents our recent trip to Tasmania. My ambition was to find and film as many bird and mammal species as possible and our time here did not disappoint.

My original intention was to make a short film about the charismatic and endemic Scrubtit but as the timeline developed, I decided to add a splash of other species into the documentary.

Our journey takes us through pristine habitats, searching for the incredibly diverse birds and Mammals of Tasmania. The forests are delightful and present as a storybook with Tree ferns and moss covered logs.

Tasmania is also home to a number of endemic bird species that cannot be found anywhere else on earth.

Eventually, our 3 week adventure will be documented in a 3 part series covering an impressive array of species and of course the wonderful habitats that they live.

Please comment and let me know what you think.
