PROTECTION OF BIRDS AND FISH IN
GRENADA.

The Grenada Government Gozette for May
/, 1911, contains the draft of a Bill for an
Ordinance intituIed an Ordinance to Amend
the Provisions Of the Birds and Fish Ordi-
nance, 1891. This provides for the extern
sion of the close season to various birds and
for oysters, turtle, fresh-water mullet and
cray fish; it also prevents the expectation of
any bird or any parts of a bird specified in
the First Schedule to the Principal Ordi-
nance. This schedule. which contains the
names of birds that are absolutely protected
by the law, is amended by the addition of
the names of the ground dove, pea dove or
pardrix, hawks and eagles, the pelican, and
heroDs AID egret. Among partially protected
birds (n the Second Schedule to the Prin-
cipal Ordinancel the Trinidad ground dove
and the pea dove or perdrix are transferred
to the lists of birds having absolute protec-
ton. The Ordinance repeats the Birds and
