According to their statement, the country is very open, with a fine large creek, which flows down to the Condamine; this is the creek which we passed on the 10th Oct., and which I called "Charley's Creek." The creek first seen by Mr.Hodgson joins this, and we are consequently still on westerly waters.
Thermometer, at sunrise, 54 degrees (in the water 64 degrees); at eight o'clock 64 degrees.

Strong easterly and northerly winds during the last two nights.

It becomes calm at a quarter past three, with the rise of Venus.
Mr.Calvert brought an edible mushroom out of Flourspill Scrub.
The Loranthus of the Myal grows also on other Acacias with glaucous leaves.

A bright yellow everlasting is very fine and frequent.
