[November 11 th 1949] It was warm and humid with light 
showers and my mackintosh was very 
hot wearing when walking fast. A 
Tasmanian Native Hen was seen in the 
swamp but very little else until I came 
on the DUSKY ROBIN - true to report - a 
young bird being fed! I walked down 
the access road to the main road and 
so back to camp. 
In the afternoon we travelled 
back to Hobart by bus - I was 
tired and slept for about an hour 
but did pick up the Weafy HOARY-HEADED 
GREBE, BANDED PLOVER and REED-WARBLER. 
These, with a MUSK DUCK seen on L. St 
Claire early in the morning brought 
to completion the birds seen in 
Tasmania - 71 all together including 
45 at L. St Claire.
