I flyig fox camp & back by cartan road thlugh "jount". Saw half breed, Paddy Groves, kangaroo hunter. He says there are freed foxes (not reds) & 2 sorts of wallabies. He knew Hypsi pygmodon. Set a dozen traps in trail in scrub. After supper tried trip "jackie" but rain spoiled it—quite heavy rain. Took a Hypsipygmodon in hand. It hung up under bedsprig in my room. I palled it by hand. Tue. 16. Found an Antechinus and a Rattus (possibly coronatus) in my 11 traps. Walked out with Paddy but saw no trace of Hypsi pygmodon. A grove (natural) of fan palms opposite throwing good shade. This is included to be "melanole" county. Hills a foot deep are dotted all through the scrub! These floors with the four has been cleared constitute a certain danger for cattle. Went "jackie" with Paddy, a half breed. He took me into some old tinta tracks. Heard the animal, but saw no eyes at all. Paddy hought one Rhinopodus from the mice he looks in. Wed. 17 4 traps they are set. Went to flyig fox camp— Pteropus conspicillatus. Shot five. Called on Miss Salisbury, who had one up for me. Pickled same. Stemming all afternoon. Dole Cape wallaby joanna; I kept the little one. A whitish-grey tree frog in Miss Salisbury's milk can. Rebaited at 6.15 pm., while going Phil Hanna hunted Hypsi pygmodon with his .410. He said he saw one. That night he & I hented with lights to the top of the Proseran Table—a round trip of 5 miles. Saw only a 7-ft carpet snake—about 3 yards, it was curled there when we returned. Thur. Mar. 18. Frosted in traps. Visits fun. Retation (the knees Dinlayers) & Keridge, both of Milanda. Also Sid Balls & friends from Cairns.
