78 [Page number]

March. 5th 1954. It was a Friday evening
and I left about 5.0 pm. to stay the
[margin][circled]77[/circled] total for 317[/margin]  
weekend with Max McGarvie just N[orth] E[ast]
of Cavendish. Just out of Cavendish
I killed an OWLET-NIGHTJAR in my
car's radiator, which was a new bird
to Max and put me nicely "Ã¶n top"
to start with.
March 6th. â”€ Max was working in the
morning so I wandered round close
to the house - noting with interest,
large numbers of RAINBOW LORIKEETS
together with MUSK, LITTLE and PURPLE-
CROWNED LORIKEETS â”€ which made all
four occurring in Southern Victoria.
   In the afternoon we went
into the scrub at the southern tip of
the Grampians. It was misty open
forest, swamping in parts, and near 
to the ranges, the undergrowth got 
much thicker. Birds of interest that
we saw this day were EMU, SACRED 
KINGFISHER, WHITE-BROWED BABBLERS, BLACK-[CAPPED SITELLA]
