A guided day trip with Simon Starr of Firetail Birding. No word of a lie, this was one of the very best days birding I've ever had. We saw well over 100 species in a variety of habitats. Simon got even more because of course he knows the calls and we didn't get on to the Fluttering Shearwaters that he picked up.
