The Furneaux group of islands has more than 150 bird species some that are common and other rarer birds maintain a stronghold in the Furneaux group. Being isolated from both Tasmania and the Mainland some of the more common species have distinct sub-species living on the islands. There are many and varied habitats for viewing birds from coastal beaches, heath land, swamps, lagoons and eucalyptus forests.
