summer species, have been seen on the
river, but the hunters who are acquainted
with the habits of the birds state that It
will be but short time before they are
here in fairly large numbers, but an unu-
sually good duck hunting season Is not
anticipated. The birds generally make
their appearance on the river after cool
weather comes and they generally follow
a good heavy northwest blow that comes
about the time of the first frost of the
season.
The heavy northwest gale came Tues
day last and there was frost on the
ground yesterday morning. The combi-
nation, the hunters say, is just right for
the birds. Shutters, blue wing and some
times mallard ducks are among the larger
fowl shot in the waters of the Potomac
in this vicinity. and sometimes hunter
is fortunate enough to kill a canvas back
or two The latter variety Of duck is not
at all common in the vicinity of this city,
although in the vicinity of Gunston and
Glymont they are often found in small
fiocks.
The feeding grounds this fall are COW
cred with grain and wild marine plants,
on which the birds feed and If this is
any indication the season should be a
fairly good one.
