AUS Ecoadventures - PRIVATE Guiding & Spotlighting (8 hrs, from lunchtime to evening)

After lunch (own expense), you'll take a walk in Mountain Ash forest, the tallest flowering plant in the world, where Superb Lyrebirds mimic other birds and Australia's native mammals dwell. 

Late afternoon, we'll head to a secret location to look for wild Platypus (they are very commonly seen) and, if you're lucky, stumble across the resplendent resident Lyrebirds at Badger Weir. A night-time stroll, under spotlight in the dead of night, will let us search for one of Melbourne's most endearing and secretive native animals - the Greater Glider. 

Although no wildlife sightings can ever be guaranteed, during this trip you have a very good chance of seeing Platypus, Wombat, Swamp Wallaby, Superb Lyrebird (seasonal) and Greater Glider, as well as a suite of rainforest birds. You might see Sugar Glider, Yellow-bellied Glider and Mountain Brushtail Possum during spotlighting and you will may hear Sooty Owl, Powerful Owl and Southern Boobook.
