The extensive wetlands and sand-flats that surround Pilitika / Robbins Island are home to more resident and migratory shorebirds and waterbirds than the rest of Tasmania combined. Flocks of several dozen herons may be regularly observed, foraging and flying over exposed mudflats, and roosting in tree-tops in adjacent woodland.

Rob Blakers has photographed in the wild places of Tasmania for over 40 years. His interests lie in landscape, environmental conservation and the evolution of photographic methods and values in the age of digital technology.
