Travelling around Tasmania we decided to call into the Devil Conservation Park. We were not sure what to expect but we did not expect to be entertained by a marvellous and entertaining bird show.  It gave us lots of laughs and allowed us to touch the birds and watch them do things that they would do naturally in the wild – Steve the trainer was wonderful and was happy to answer the many questions thrown at him by the audience.

We were so happy to do the devil feeding because 'lo and behold'  the mother had given birth to 3 babies – she came off her babies to eat and we were able to take some lovely photos of the sweet little darlings.

There was so many lovely trees everywhere so although the afternoon was hot it was cool in the old orchard walk and we even saw a red chested robin happily looking for bugs among the foliage beside the track.

They have a lovely kangaroo feeding area and a flock of Cape Barren Geese who have decided to make the area their home – they have a couple of nests tucked in the tree stumps around the area. Also in this same area is where they keep the female quolls – we were pleasantly surprised yet again to be able to watch the babies.

Definitely if you to to the Port Arthur area this is a place to go to see our lovely animals in natural surroundings and have hands on experiences.
