I went out with the morning sunrise tour and then came back with the wildlife tour in the afternoon, something they are prepared to do for birders who want to spend time on Blumine Island (if both tours are going anyway). All in all a good haul of South Island endemics and a lovely day spent in some lovely surroundings.

A guide with transport would be the perfect way to visit this site as it can be a bit tricky to get to. Do not expect a taxi driver to know the site as it is basically a turf farm with little or nothing to attract punters in from the outside. You will need to know the way.

And of course, shuttling wildlife to and fro, and contemplating their place in our lives and our place in theirs. South Florida is home to the most racetracks and Greyhound farms and trainers in the country, and you can’t turn on the radio or the television without encountering a commercial for the tracks.
