[10 th DECEMBER 1955] down off the road into the gully and walked 
up it, perhaps half a mile though it 
seemed much longer. We found the 
nest of a PINK ROBIN - a superb thing 
perched on a tree-fern's frond, about 
3 mi l es feet from the ground, Then we 
came across a Slender Tree-fern which 
Norm and Hugh measured as 24 feet - as 
far as is known, a record. I was 
extremely weary and was very tired 
when we got back up to the cars. We 
had lunch back at the Camp where we 
had spent the night. 
In the afternoon we went on to the 
Parker R. and settled into Camp. I was 
exhausted - a most unpleasant condition. 
We went across to Blanket Bay and had 
a swim which was very reviving. On 
the way back we saw an INDIAN MYNAH, of 
all things, flying strongly for the Lighthouse. 
What it expected to do when it got there I 
don't know! At Camp we saw a SATIN 
FLYCATCHER and KING PARROTS. How I slept!
