Some of the scanned text may be very faint. This file contains a biology report Wilkes station in 1963. The data were collected in the Windmill Islands, at locations such as Lewis Island, Clarke Island, Frazier Islands (Islets), Ardery Island (Islet), Odbert Island and Petersen Island. The report also contains meteorological observations, bird-banding data, and hand-drawn maps. The observations were made of: Adelie penguins Emperor penguins South polar skuas Giant petrels Cape pigeons Silver-grey petrels Antarctic petrels Snow petrels Wilson's storm petrels Terns Ross seals Crabeater seals Elephant seals Wddell seals Leopard seals Killer whales. The hard copy of the map has been archived by the Australian Antarctic Division library.
