f64 but over exposed the film! The results were 
fair - in fact most encouraging - though the
subjects were a bit small in the finished 
result. 
  After lunch I went for an extensive 
walk and met in addition a NEW-HOLLAND 
HONEYEATER and heard the GREY-BUTCHER-BIRD 
though never saw it. I flushed a young 
BRONZEWING PIGEON which rose with a clatter 
and overhead a WHISTLING EAGLE floated 
above the bush. 
  The boys packed up and were in 
the truck soon after 3:30 pm and as I 
was maneuvering my car out of the lane 
where it had been parked I noticed a 
BLACK-FRONTED DOTTREL giving a threat- 
display in front of my wheel. There, where 
I had nearly run over it, was a 
nest, right in the centre of the lane with 
three eggs. They had been looking for 
it during the whole week-end and it 
was only found when it was too late to 
take any pictures! I had a superb 
day - a Saturday-party again in 
grand scale.
