Mist nets have made a substantial contribution to banding inAustralia, and the authors are ardent supporters of their use. Since the inception of "The Australian Bird Bander" considerable emphasis has been placed on mist netting, some what to the detriment of other techniques.

The Silver Gull Larus novaehollandiae is becoming one of the best known, scientifically, of Australian birds (Wheeler and Watson, Emu, 1963) and to the interest of many banders since the scheme started in 1953.

On September 12, 1959, I was informed that a large flock of Common Starlings was roosting at night beneath the roof of a disused building in the township of Oatlands in the midlands of Tasmania. The birds were reported to be in such numbers as to create a local nuisance when arriving and departing, their droppings fouling drying laundry, parked cars etc., and, in spite of nightly raids by irate neighbours armed with sticks and killing many birds, they could not be deterred from returning.

The recent paper by D.M. Walker (19640 prompts me to place on record weights of 132 Silvereyes Zosterops lateralis taken near Canberra, ACT, Australia from February 1963 to April 1963. The sample is not large, but is presented as unfortunately I am unable to continue the work.

Nielsen L. (1965). Banding the Crested Pigeon in Queensland. The Australian Bird Bander 3:45-46

The author records his experienc in banding Crested Pigeons Ocyphaps lophotes during two seasons at Jandowac in Southern Queensland. This species is subject to regular movements, and banding results raise some interesting questions.

The seasonal fluctuations of the Yellow-tufted Honeyeater Meliphaga melanops in localities near Bendigo, Victoria, are described, and these are related to the flowering of favoured trees and shrubs. The numbers banded and retrapped over a thirteen month period are tabulated. Numbers banded in any one month fluctuated between 43 and 464. No distant recoveries have been reported.

A trap is described specially designed for catching Spur-winged Plovers Lobibyx novaehollandiae at their nest. It is designed primarily for catching incubating birds, but can also be used over newly hatched chicks. The adult birds enter readily and at once settle on the eggs.

The objectives of these campouts are discussed and their progress during the first two years of operation is briefly outlined.
