19.01.2022 https://www.sbs.com.au//prog/going-places-with-ernie-dingo Season 3 Episode 15 Bruny Island How good was this!!! Thank you Rodney Dillon and Tracey, of course, for sharing your story in that beautiful part of the world. And the Welcome song from SETAC was 'deadly' ... The rest of the episode was very enlightening - wildlife, eagles, other bird species, land care with Dr Tonia Cochrane at Inala nature tours and of course Rob Pennicott. Bruny Island is a must see.
