volunteer helpers in different parts of the State, 
have already done much valuable work. 
The Survey is fortunate in having the support 
of the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research, 
Australian and New Zealand Association, The State 
Forestry Department and the Animals and Birds Pro¬ 
tection Board. 
Some of the material collected has already been 
despatched to specialists for examination and report, 
and several useful papers have been published. Sci¬ 
entists throughout Australia and'in England are very 
interested in the survey. 
V/e hope that the members of our club will do 
what they can to assist the survey. Collecting gear 
can be obtained free from the Survey Secretary at the 
Tasmanian Museum. . 
For those who do not like collecting, there is 
the recording of observations:- A Field Naturalist 
Is keen to learn all he or she - can about wild life, 
and if daily records are kept they are of value. Nat- 
. ure’s ways are said to be secret, but they are not 
so secret to the naturalist who has pencil and paper, 
and keeps his eyes open. We look more especially to 
our juniors for help in this active work. 
_A white Blue Wren was recently given to the 
Biological Survey. This bird was a true Albino with 
pink eyes, bill and legs.
