Bruny Island Neck is an isthmus of land connecting north and south Bruny Island, in southern Tasmania.

 

The Neck is an important habitat for Bruny’s native wildlife. Boardwalks and viewing platforms enable you to observe the little penguins at dusk.

Timber stairs lead from the dunes to the Neck lookout, offering stunning 360 degree views. You’ll find a memorial there to the indigenous Nuenonne people who lived on Lunnawannalonna (Bruny Island) before the European settlement of Bruny.

Adventure Bay, Bruny Island. I caught a glimpse of this tree from the road - which sounds normal except that the road was elevated, separated by thick vegetation and a small cliff and the road was narrow and winding on the approach (I was driving). I knew immediately that I had to track down this tree. So with two of my sons locked into the adventure (the others sensibly played in the sand close to where we parked), we trekked through the numerous small beaches and rocky outcrops to find this tree.

I only took a modest amount of shots of the tree, but Quinn (my eldest son) took around 10 times more - he even lay in the sand, pushing the limits of his new camera with great some results from angles I didn't even think of!

This male Crescent Honeyeater was a "lifer" for me, first time I've ever seen/photographed one of them. Photographed at Adventure Bay, Bruny Island, Tasmania.

A rainswept track called 'Whalebone Point Track' between beaches at Cloudy Bay, far southern end of Bruny Island, Tasmania.

This is one of those magical trees at a place called Tinderbox - beyond the tree is Bruny Island, a magical place for me. In between is the D'Entrecasteaux Channel. And of course there is the cow.

Tinderbox, Tasmania - looking across to Bruny Island.

I've eyed off this tree for a while now, and decided to finally pull over and photograph it. I was hoping the cow might look up for the photo, but the grass was just too yummy.

We had just walked a trail without seeing or photographing anything.

As we were returning to the car, suddenly a group of these beautiful parrots appeared. They spent some time feeding in the grass and then disappeared.

 

Uncommon and classified as Vulnerable.
