The file consists of two notebooks, the first of which contains a nature diary, 1947-1948, mainly describing the appearances, distribution and habits of birds seen on Jersey, illustrated by occasional sketches, with a few observations made in Cardiganshire and other places on the outward and return journeys, bird lists and useful addresses at the back, with notes by Penny Condry on wild flowers, 1949, and the gardens at Glygyrog Ddu and Felin-y-cwm, 1949-1953. The smaller notebook contains a diary by Penny Condry, autumn 1947, describing the restoration of Ronald Lockley's house, and a few, unrelated notes on Latin accents.
