Greetings. While searching Trove for something I stumbled across this delightful 1935 piece by Australian naturalist Edith Coleman: Coleman, E 1935, 'Easter Number Gardening Page: Fuchsias and honeybirds', The Australian Woman's Mirror,
vol. 11, no. 22, 23 April 1935, http://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-565786215. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I did.
Edith Coleman is renowned for her early work on identifying pseudo-copulation by wasps in Australian orchids, among other things: McEvey, A, 'Coleman, Edith (1874–1951)',
