BY KENDAL BROADBENT. 119 
Examples of almost all the 140 birds included in the following 
enumeration have been shot by me, and except in the case of a 
few critical species I have little doubt concerning the accuracy 
of the determinations given in the following census :— 
Aquila audax, Lath. The “ Kaglehawk.” 
Falco lunulatus, Lath. The White-fronted Falcon. 
Hieracidea berigora, Vig. and Hors. The Brown Hawk, seen 
in October. 
Tinnunculus cenchroides, Vig. and Hors. The “ Kestrel.” 
Accipiter cirrhocephalus, Vieill. 
A. torquatus, The “ Sparrow Hawk.” 
Milvus affinis, Gould. The ‘ Kite.” 
Elanus scriptus, Gould. . The Letter-winged Kite. 
Ninox strenua, Gould. The Great Ow] of the Brushes. 
There were a pair of these large owls which frequented the 
neighbourhood of my camp, especially when the nights were 
darkest. They uttered a cry of more-pork, but the sound was 
deeper and more voluminous than that used by the boobook 
owl. The male bird when shot had an opossum, of which the 
head had been eaten off, in its claws. 
Ninox boobook, Lath. The Boobook Owl. 
(gotheles Nove-hollandiw, Vig. and Hors. 
Podargus strigoides, Lath. The Tawny-shouldered Podargus. 
Chetura caudacuta, Lath. The Spine-tailed Swift. 
Hirundo frontalis, Quoy and Gaim. The Welcome Swallow. 
The first of these birds which I noticed, on its northward 
journey, was in the middle of May, and I did not meet with 
this swallow again until 12th June. 
Lagenoplastes ariel, Gould. The Fairy Martin. 
Merops ornatus, Lath. The Bee-eater, was here in the fall of 
the year. 
Eurystomus pacificus, Lath. The Dollar Bird, which I obtained 
here in December. These birds remain in the locality as far 
as I have observed until February.
