Fitzroy Islands (Tasmania)

The Fitzroy Islands comprise a group of four rocky islets, with a combined area of 0.18 ha, in south-eastern Australia. They are part of the Breaksea Island Group, lying close to the southern end of the western coast of Tasmania. They are also part of the Southwest National Park, and thus within the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Site.[1]

Fauna

Recorded breeding seabird species are the Silver Gull, Sooty Oystercatcher and Caspian Tern.[1]
