[29th - 4th Sept 1954]
Falls with every intention of coming 
back through the Canyon, but Dani 
was not able to make the grade far past 
the falls. On Friday morning we went to 
the Cumberland, which was well flooded 
but we managed to get quite a way 
up. Julian did an amazing walk and 
scramble (quite happily) for one who only 
3 1/2 y[ea]rs. In the afternoon Joan took 
Dani back to Queenscliffe - Saturday home. 
  Birds can almost be said to 
be negligble* [negligible] - a total of 40. - less 
(by far) than a few hours on the 
Glenelg [River]. A pair of immature Pacific 
Gulls were (I think) the first of the 
species I have seen at Lorne, if not 
the whole Otway Coast. FANTAIL CUCKOOS were 
calling in the gullies which I was 
surprised at (31.8.54). Apart from that 
there was only the avifauna that one 
would expect as basic at Lorne - in fact 
I would put it at that figure - [underlined] 40 [/underlined]. But 
it was an excellent [underlined] family [/underlined] holiday.!
