EVENING MEETING, 17th October, 1938.— The 
President, Dr. D. A. Herbert, occupied the chair, and 
about 40 members were present. Mrs. Morton and Miss 
Sanderson were elected members of the Club. A report 
on the birds seen about Nudgee Lagoon on the Club’s 
excursion on the 15th October was given by Mrs. Comrie- 
Smith. Twenty-five species were listed. It was reported 
that the Bora Ring at Nudgee Lagoon had been repaired. 
The fence was erected, but the ring itself still needed a 
little attention. October being bird month, lecturettes 
were given by Mr. J. E. Young, on the birds of the 
Carnarvon Ranges, and by Mr. W. Arundell, on rare 
birds still to be seen about Brisbane. Mr. Neville Cayley, 
the well-known ornithologist of Sydney, was welcomed 
to the meeting by the President, and spoke briefly about 
the work of the Gould League of Bird Lovers in New 
South Wales. He said that as this is the hundredth 
anniversary of Gould’s visit to Australia, several com- 
memoration meetings were to be held in Sydney. He 
said his principal object in coming to Queensland was to 
try to revive the Gould League in this State, and further, 
to form a Commonwealth body. With the aid of a 
bioscope, lent by Messrs. Harringtons Ltd., Mr. G. H. 
Barker screened some beautiful colour plates of American 
birds, particularly sea-birds. A collection of wild-flowers 
received from the South Australia Field Naturalists’ 
Club was exhibited.
