being with Gould's Plate of Acanthisa striata! I have
vowed to go carefully through the whole of the local
list carefully for similar misidentifications. However since
the 22nd April last, when Joan presented me with
North's Nest and Eggs, is the first time I have had
an adequate account of each Austalian bird.
28th April 1948 [margin][circled] 30 [/circled][/margin]
I immunised on the Swan Marsh to
Ondit "circuit". It was a dull day except for
tea which I had at Meredith Park where I
counted 119 Musk Duck and heard their thin whistling
across the still water. It is remarkable however
that I saw more birds on this day than on
the previous Sunday afternoon in the bush. It is
an indication of the wealth of water-birds which
I separate in the following list.
