Norfolk Island with Stewart McPherson

May 12th @ 1:00pm AEST

Norfolk Island is 1,676 km northeast of Sydney and about 8 km long and 5 km wide. The island is home to the tallest fern trees on the planet and towering pine trees. Lush forests and offshore islands are sanctuaries to some of the world’s rarest birds and the surrounding waters teem with fish.

A strong blend of Polynesian and European heritage has a created a distinctive society, characterised by neighbourliness, self-help, and barter.

Stewart McPherson is the author of 35 natural history books and the host of numerous wildlife TV documentaries. He has lead dozens of expeditions across the world and has discovered 35 new species.

Stewart has witnessed both the destruction of nature and the saving of species on the absolute brink of extinction. He co-founded Darwin200 and is leading this innovative, global adventure.
