Routeburn
There are 50 kilometres of trap-lines targeting rats and stoats in the valley forests, starting near the Routeburn Shelter.
The birds in this area include Yellowhead/mohua, Rifleman/tītipounamu, and South Island Robin/toutouwai.
Just wanted to congratulate you on your predator control work. So many small birds compared to this time 6 years ago!

I recently visited the area around Glenorchy and walked the Routeburn to the second hut. I saw and heard some lovely birds. Keep up this crucial work.
