Down night camp valley - beautiful men of Wilhelmina - a snipe flushed from track - Climbing out to south a McGregoria. In grass and tree fern country - a party of six to eight Lonchura archboldi in tree ferns. Struck anew by very fine think "trik" calls - fifty-five minutes slow walking to view of campsite. Established camp - plenty of timber - all natives sadly handicapped by lack of any knowledge of flies or tents but worked well. This PM, just before dark, the trilled whistle of Syma (?) - No! rather Cacomantis - but fail to get this. No grouse today, though feathers in grass by camp. Scolopax at dark tonight - heard one calling "Queent" then saw it fly high over camp to the swamp below where it apparently perched. Visited the Papuans rock shelter where recently they have made fires. But more interesting is another ledge where natives used to stop. Here bones of pigs and men mingled in the fires and in a roll of bark set up in a cleft stuck with brown leaves - still at- tached were parts of skull and femur of a man. This ledge commands a good view of valley and apparently fairly much used - but not now. The much charred human bones in the bark were evidently buried else- where and carried there. Salvadoria. Flushed one from stream on way in. August 28, 1938. Clear AM - frost - -1 deg. C. 6.30. Clouds shade us off and on all AM - mid PM hail and rain and clouds drifting down - starry tonight. Climbed to ridge west of camp - beautiful view of magnificent valleys and mountains to east - Mt.
