After dark – The glorious nightlife of Bruny Island
Bruny Island
Join Inala nature guide Cat Davidson for an engaging and immersive presentation that will unveil the fascinating lives of the island’s nocturnal residents. From the wonderful Pademelons and Wallabies you enjoy watching every day, to the charming Eastern Quoll that you might occasionally glimpse darting through the underbrush, this talk will open your eyes to the secrets of the island after dark.
Through a photographic journey, Cat will illuminate the fascinating behaviours and habits of these nocturnal creatures. You’ll learn about the fungi-foraging Long-nosed Potoroo and discover why we have local mutations like the White Wallaby and the Golden Possum.
But it’s not just about mammals—Cat will also shine a light on the Short-tailed Shearwaters, who breed on The Neck each season, and share insights on how we can help protect vulnerable nocturnal birds, including the mysterious Masked Owl, one of Tasmania’s most endangered species.
Whether you’re a long-time local or new to Bruny, this presentation is your chance to rediscover the incredible wildlife that lives right on our doorstep. Don’t miss this opportunity to deepen your connection with the remarkable animals that share our island.
