Green Island (Tasmania)

Green Island is a small island nature reserve with an area of 4.17 ha close to the south-eastern coast of Tasmania, Australia at the entrance to the River Derwent.

It lies in the D'Entrecasteaux Channel.[1][2]

Flora and fauna

The vegetation is dominated by Acaena, bracken and thistles, with introduced grasses around the shoreline and some scattered Correa bushes. Recorded breeding seabird and wader species are little penguin, Pacific gull, silver gull, kelp gull, sooty oystercatcher and Caspian tern. European rabbits have been introduced to the island. The metallic skink is present.[1]

gollark: But if you only plan to add new functions, programs can also just do `if not(library.thing and library.otherThing) then error "update weird libraries or something" end`

gollark: Maybe also supply a "is version of X greater than" function.

gollark: Also that.

gollark: Although I think versions are mostly unhelpful and you should have some kind of "is feature X supported" function.

gollark: It is a cool and good™ idea.
