10th Sept. 1941.

A very fine day, with S.W. breeze.

Rode to Killary & had lunch 1/2 mile E. of Bunderragha then returned to woods at Delphi Lodge, where swept a few insects at N. end of birch woods;  turned E. at foot of Doo Lough up Glenummera to Tawnyard Lough & over the hill to Glenlaur & Sheefy Bridge.  Above last valley, on S. side & facing NE is a magnificent series of cliffs which seem well worth working.

After tea near Sheffry Bridge rode home to Old Head via Drummin & Bourin nat. school.  The roads by Doo Lough & up Glenummera & over hill to Sheffry Bridge very bad, with loose stones, & not fit for a car.  Scenery, however, very fine.

Butterfly.  Saw a Red Admiral at tea-place, above Sheffry Bridge.
