[11 th September 1949] to a hawk hovering above the tussocks, moving 
forward and stopping, quite stationary in 
mid-air, just like a Kestrel but with 
slower wing-beats. It was a BLACK- 
SHOULDERED KITE probably the bird which 
was seen when I was there with Bruce 
Amos. It flew toward me and catching 
sight of me glided down directly at 
my head, passing a few feet above to 
continue its direct course onward to the 
trees lining the Barwon.
