Excerpt from A Naturalist in Tasmania AT the extreme south of Australia and separated at a distance of about two hundred miles from the mainland by the gradually shelving channel of Bass's Straits, lies the little island of Tasmania, mountainous, forest - clad, and watered by innu merable rivers and highland lakes, and about intermediate in size between Wales and Ireland. Although it is structurally and historically a part of Australia, the scenery and climate are both quite distinctive, and if a somewhat sombre monotony, not without its special charm, is the keynote of Australia, Tasmania, small as it is, is a land of variety and bold transition, from flat Eucalyptus-covered tablelands to fantastically rugged mountain ranges, overgrown with virgin forests of southern Pine and evergreen 'beech; from the calm blue skies of a southern Italian summer to the fierce Antarctic blizzard.
