Spotlight Tours
When the Forest Comes Alive After Dark
We run our spotlight tours at various venues, depending on what our clients are chasing. Whilst nothing is guaranteed in nature, we normally come away with happy clients who saw their first Glider, or managed to get a look at one of our amazing species of Owl. We always fit an infrared filter over the spotlight once an animal is encountered, this limits the disturbance to near on zero.
Some of the birds and mammals we could potentially see are:
Nocturnal Birds
-
Sooty Owl
-
Powerful Owl
-
Masked Owl
-
Boobook Owl
-
White-throated Nightjar
Nocturnal Mammals
-
Greater Glider
-
Yellow-bellied Glider
-
Kreft’s Glider (formerly Sugar Glider)
-
Feathertail Glider
-
Brush-tailed Phascogale
Please note, once an animal is located with the spotlight an infrared filter is placed over the light which reduces stress to the animal to almost zero.
