106 [page number] 
[9'\ November 1954] [EASTERN] SPINEBILL, BROWN THORNBILL, CRIMSON ROSELLA, 
SCARLET ROBIN and DUSKY WOOD-SWALLOW. 
The most thing however was a tortoise 
walking along the road - smelly [guess] things. 
I returned home by 12.0 in drizzling 
driving rain which looks as if it has 
set in for the rest of the day. 
Noel Learmouth looked in in the 
afternoon and we had a fine chat. 
November 10th. A much better day, clear 
up well during the afternoon. After 
T(81) breakfast I drove down the tracks I 
(40) had followed two days previously but 
saw nothing new - a Blue-winged 
Parrot being the only bird of interest I 
called out to Learmouth for morning-tea 
and examined his beach-washed 
specimens and admired his roses, which 
were superb. 
After lunch, Noel called for me, 
and we drove a few miles to the east 
of the town and did some beach-combing.
