Take a moment to think about a species you care about, and the emotions you feel when you think about the interactions you've had. You might feel a sense of magic or a loss of words.

Protecting beach birds is not just about focussing on where they might be when they’re breeding. Its about saying – “these birds occupy many beaches”.

Nature prescribing is a growing movement in health-care. This systematic review by the Lancet reveals clear benefits to blood pressure, symptoms of depression and anxiety, and physical activity from nature prescribing programs.

It's well documented that people with a connection to Nature - or to something they like - are far more active in conserving it, writes BirdLife Tasmania's Karen Dick. The Bruny Island Bird Festival occurs every two years and is a critical event to help develop that connection. It's also a time to inspire the next generation.

An extensive report compiled by ecologist Dr Tonia Cochran and Tasmania's Threatened Species Unit into the stunningly varied bird, plant and animal species found on Bruny Island.

The ecology of Simpsons bay has improved in recent years. Shorebird numbers here have increased. There are a number of reasons behind this improved ecology.

Kuno is your platform to share a love of Earth. Here is a simple guide for how to use it.

The dusky dolphin is one of the smaller dolphin species with a maximum weight of about 85 kilograms and a length, of just over two metres. The dusky dolphin is a social species, known for its agility and coordinated acrobatic abilities.

Joshua Tree National Park was once described by early explorers as a “profitless locality” and that it “shall be forever unvisited”.
A bit of time, visitation by those with a more discerning eye and the efforts of a determined woman resulted in the protection of a treasured place.

We all need a good visual dose of the wonder of Nature sometimes, and we can't always get outside from behind the desk, to breathe it in. Here, we bring it to you, with these beautiful close-ups of our unique woodland bird species, photographed by Tasmanian bird ecologist Dr Eric Woehler (OAM). Take a moment and enjoy.

Bruny Island has an intricate, complex, beautiful and varied coastline, ranging from sheltered inlets, shallow bays, mudflats, lagoons, and grand sea-cliffs, through to long sandy ocean facing beaches.

Pelagic birds are birds that spend a large part of their life on the open ocean. These include the majestic Albatross, petrels and terns. This gallery of Pelagic birds by Marcio Conrado was taken off the Tasman Peninsula

The fairy tern is a similar size to a hooded plover - so tiny, it would sit comfortably in the palm of your hand. They lay just two eggs, onto the beach sand. See these remarkable images from Tasmanian-based bird ecologist Dr Eric Woehler.

The dramatic-looking rockhopper penguin is characterised by its red eyes, upright yellow head feathers along a supercilium stripe and a crest of black feathers on top. They are separated into three sub-species, photographer here by ecologist Dr Eric Woehler (OAM) and located around the Antarctic and sub-Antarctic zones.

In another successful launch event for Kuno, a big crowd turned out in Hobart on the 1st of October 2024 to hear more about the project, meet the team behind the vision, hear from inspiring speakers and network with other Nature lovers. Thank you Hobart for your support!
