Book Description
Excerpt from Proceedings of the Royal Society of Victoria, Vol. 3 Having recently devoted myself to nearly four months of scientific research, particularly with reference to field work, in Western Australia I desire to lay before this Society the following oological notes. Further, at this juncture, the notes may le deemed the more valuable, because the West Australian Constitution Bill, now before the Imperial Parliament, is directing attention to the great western territory, from whence any knowledge is of peculiar interest at present. Astur cruentus, Gould (west Australian Goshawk). Eggs roundish in shape, bluish - white, with dull surface. In a clutch of two, one Specimen possesses a few smudges of reddish-brown. Dimensions 44 x cm., (2) 433 x 343 cm. These examples are from the Champion Bay District. I did not take them personally, but have no doubt of their identity. Gould states that this goshawk breeds during October and the two following months, making a nest of dead sticks on the horizontal fork of a mahogany (eucalypt) tree.

Book Description
Excerpt from Transactions and of Proceedings of the Royal Society of Victoria, Vol. 7: January, 1865 to June, 1866 The Seventh Volume of the "Transactions of the Royal Society of Victoria," now issued to the Members, brings the Proceedings of the Society to the close of the first six months of 1866. It also embraces the Address of the President for this year, delivered on the 2nd July. It will be seen that many of the papers are of considerable importance, both in their value as contributions to the literature of science, and also from their relation to a young colony, of which so much has yet to be learned. The Council for the present year earnestly desire to continue the publication of the Transactions, by the issue of quarterly parts; but such a proceeding, involving as it does a large expenditure of money, together with a considerable amount of labour, can only be accomplished by the co-operation of the body of members. If those entrusted with the government of the Royal Society obtain that assistance, there is no reason to fear that the Papers will ever fall into the arrear from which they are now brought by the publication of the present volume.
