Dead link?

You're totally right. Fixed now - I missed an 's' in the URL. (corrected). --jjron (talk) 10:21, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

Congratulations

...on you DYK! This article gave me a lot of pleasure as Alice Manfield reminds me very much of myself, rambling around in the mountains, generally alone, from the time I was a child, and happening on a lyrebird sitting safely on its nest under a rockledge, protected from the bushfire that had raged through, only days before.

Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it. I reckon her's is a great little story too, and glad it brought you back some nice memories. Cheers, --jjron (talk) 10:30, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

Picture of the day

Alice Manfield (1878–1960), commonly known as Guide Alice, was a mountain guide, amateur naturalist, chalet owner, photographer, and early feminist figure from Victoria, Australia. Her pioneering work at Mount Buffalo from the 1890s to the 1930s led to her becoming a tourist attraction in her own right, and helped lead to the establishment of the Mount Buffalo National Park. Manfield's parents ran a hotel at Mount Buffalo, and she led tours up the mountain from her youth. Because of her enthusiasm and extensive knowledge of the area, she quickly became a highly sought-after guide. She continued guiding tourists until the 1930s.Photo: Unknown; Restoration: John O'Neill
