AL- I" Even when an automobile is driven through the preserve, the mallards follow quacking behind, and fre- quently it is necessary to stop the car entirely while the ducks are driven away from in front and un- derneath the machine. Then grad- ually the car advances, as the ducks continue to crowd around, and eventually they fall in line in the rear, following as far as it is pos- sible for them to go. There is no more interesting sight during this open season period of the year than to visit the bird refuge and enjoy. the friendliness and the close rela- tion of these__so_-called wild fowl. Confident in their security, they keep closel within their haunts where food is plentiful, several . lakes at band and no dog or gun near to. disturb their security.

Naturally, each person who visits the preserve is looked upon as a friend, perhaps one with some- thing to put out in the way of food. and it is nothing unusual to have several hundred of the mallards fol: lowing behind, each quacking to hlS heart’s content.
