Franklin Sound Islands Important Bird Area
The Franklin Sound Islands Important Bird Area comprises several small islands, with a collective total area of 1725 ha, lying in Franklin Sound between the much larger Flinders Island to the north and Cape Barren Island to the south, in the Furneaux Group of Tasmania, Australia. The islands have been identified by BirdLife International as an Important Bird Area (IBA) because they support over 1% of the global populations of the Cape Barren goose, short-tailed shearwater, white-faced storm-petrel, black-faced cormorant, sooty oystercatcher and Pacific gull.
