[8, 9th April Eventually I made it, the eight miles taking two hours 
1948] and a lot of sweating. In fact I did not see 
many birds, but whether that was because there were 
only a few or whether I had all my attention on 
the track (sic). However two new birds were 
added to my local list - a flock of WHITE-WINGED 
CHOUGHS and a flock of LITTLE CUCKOO-SHRIKE. Also seen 
were a SINGING HONEYEATER and a PIED CURRAWONG at 
Carlisle. 
19th April I did my second trip to Apollo Bay 
1948 (30) It was a good day for birds. In the bush 
I saw the following list- MAGPIE

At Apollo Bay a STRIATED FIELD-WREN flew up from 
some grass in an allotment in the middle of the 
town and SILVER GULLS + CRESTED TERNS were seen on the 
shore. A very dead FAIRY PENGUIN was picked up 
on the golf links, while BLACK-BROWED ALBATROSSES 
followed the fishing fleet in or sat in large 
numbers on the water further out.
