25* September 1954. - The start of a 
(19) holiday for just Joan and myself- motoring 
to Adelaide. It was a Saturday 
afternoon and we left later than we had 
meant to, for Portland. It was a 
fast trip and not much notice was 
taken of birds - just a stop to watch 
some SWAMP-HARRIERS; the only other 
two observations of any interest, being 
the BLACK-SHOULDERED KITE, and a family 
of young SPUR-WINGED PLOVER crossing the 
road. A total of a mere nineteen 
birds was seen - 
EASTERN SWAMPHEN HOARY-HEADED GREBE 
SILVER GULL WHITE IBIS 
WHITE EGRET WHITE-FACED HERON 
WHITE-NECKED HERON SWAN 
WHISTLING EAGLE SWALLOW 
MAGPIE LARK NOISY MINER 
RED WATTLE-BIRD PIPIT 
RAVEN WHITE-BACKED MAGPIE
