During his early career working in outback South Australia he made accurate field records for every bird he spotted, including notes on habitat and abundance during periods of flood. His work around Lake Eyre provided a sound basis for future ornithological work in the region. Major studies in which he was involved included population size of arid zone birds as affected by bores and the Great Victoria Desert Survey of 1983. Between 1878 and 2007 he made more than 12,000 plant collections for the State Herbarium of South Australia, with notes on distribution, biology and palatability.
