Transcription Notes:
@siobhanleachman - edited for consistency with Diary 1 & previous pages in this diary. Did my best with regard to species names. Anything I'm unsure of is in [[?]]. As the page continued, the ends of his words deteriorated into bumps. I wrote my best guess and then used Google to figure out what he probably intended. (Not correcting spelling, just trying to get the meaning.) JAS
