My last one is a notice of valuation from the #tasmanian #government .
Its for a property on #BrunyIsland , according to #RealEstate websites a similar size bit of land now costs $320,000 to buy without any improvements.

Note #Lutruwita is the #firstnations name of #Tasmania in the #PalawaKani language, which derived from the #BrunyIsland language.
On a recent trip to Hobart and surrounds with some family. Feeling recharged by the beauty in country. #tasmania #hobart #brunyisland #oysters #kunanyi #australia
THE OUTDOOR MUSEUM…
We were coming back from Cloudy Bay, a south-facing surfing beach on South Bruny Island when I saw this decrepit farm building standing alone in a grassy field. Having some weird attraction to dilapidated buildings I was compelled to stop the van, get out and photograph it.
In their neglect, slow decay and eventual collapse there is something indefinable about buildings like this. They silently speak to us of times gone, farming families gone and new priorities that arise with the passage of time. How long has this building stood? What was its purpose?

ON THE TRAIL…
A sea kayak glides along the coast at the far southern end of South Bruny Island. Adamsons Peak on the far south coast, still with snow around the summit, peeks over the hills on the horizon.

Very special bird today!
It's the endangered Swift Parrot ! (also Bird of the Year).
In fact, it's THREE endangered Swift Parrots.
I can also confirm, when they take flight, they are indeed swift. (someone over the road spooked all the birds and these guys were gone in a flash - it wasn't me that spooked them, I was lying on the wet ground).

Bruny Island so far today.
Obtained cheese, bread, honey, visited a lighthouse (took the tour), saw a giant penguin letterbox, found a very furry echidna then ate said bread, cheese and honey.
A possible albino wallaby.
