Description
Hundred Acres Reserve offers excellent birding for both NI's seabirds and its' endemics as well as affording spectacular coastal views. Birds likely to be seen include: Red-tailed Tropicbird, White Tern, Sooty Tern and Masked Booby.
From the Norfolk Island Tourism site - see link: "Protecting an area of Norfolk Island’s coastal forest, Hundred Acres Reserve offers peaceful walks amid nature. As you trek in the sun-dappled shade of skyward-reaching pines and white oaks, you’ll quickly find serenity.
In summer, bird encounters are a dime a dozen in the reserve. You might spy a white tern delivering small fish back to her adorably fluffy chick or a crooning muttonbird emerging from a burrow.
A walking track through Hundred Acres Reserve leads to Rocky Point. Home to an observation post during World War II, it’s now a favoured fishing spot among locals. From the cliffs, you’ll have front-row seats to the daredevil displays of seabirds as they sweep and soar against the backdrop of the wave-lashed coastline. In the distance, the rocky outline of Phillip Island is visible".
