GODWITS of undetermined sp[ecie}s? and
far out at sea were very large

  We met the Princes Highway
again at Tilba and spun along good 
bitumen to Narooma where we had
afternoon tea and so on to Bateman's
Bay in cool overcast weather with a
few scattered drops of rain. We arrived
at 5.30 pm. Having done 345 miles
twice filling the tank at Lakes Entrance, 
and no drop had gone into tank
in the meantime. The car has
given a little carburettor*[carburetor]  trouble today,
but has not held us up at all - perhaps
that has helped the mileage.
  I also realized during the day 
that there were three common birds
seen each day of the trip that had
 not gone into the notebook - WILLIE WAGTAIL,
SWALLOW and FAIRY MARTIN.
