Australasian Ornithologists^ Union. 



Sydney Session. 



This meeting will be held about the beginning of November, 

 due notice of which will be forwarded to members. Mr. D. Le 

 Souef, C.M.Z.S., &c., Director of the Zoological Gardens, Mel- 

 bourne, will be the president-elect. The usual popular lantern- 

 lecture will be given by the hon. secretary, Mr. A. H. E. 

 Mattingley. It will be somewhat of the sensational order — 

 murder of Herons by vandals for their plumes, during breeding 

 season, in Riverina ; graphic pictures of starving Egrets, &c. It 

 is proposed to hold, after the session, a working camp-outing in 

 the rich region of the Tuggerah Lakes.
