I will finish my Tasmanian blog posts with a general set of photos taken at or near my sister and brother in law’s property at West Ulverstone. The property is on a hill overlooking an interesting section of coast. They are close to the Three Sisters Nature Reserve and the Goat Island Nature Reserve. Also, on their property are many birds.
The photos start at the beach at Penguin.
