Join Zorali Trailblazer and resident birder Caz for a morning walk through Peter Murrell Reserve, a haven for Tasmania’s native birdlife. You’ll take a gentle stroll through open bushland and wetlands while tuning into the songs and sights of local species, from fairy-wrens to honeyeaters. Along the way, Caz will share tips on identifying birds by sight and sound, how to use binoculars effectively, and ways to deepen your connection to the natural world.

Whether you’re new to birdwatching or already a keen spotter, this experience invites you to slow down, listen, and appreciate the wild soundtrack around you.
