Ducks are associated in our minds
with broad reaches of meadow or the
open seat They love the wide spaces
of the earth, sweeping across the sky
in long lines or converging into "
shaped f1ocks. This rising and fall
ing sinuous line. seems as much a
part of the early morning on the
marshes as the reflected light in the
little reed-encircled ponds. The
wood duck differs radically, not only
in plumage, but in habit, from the
rest of the ducks. Instead of seek
ing for him among his brothers in
the sedge, we find the Respondent
fellow among the woodland streams
and lakes.
Not many miles from New York
City there is little sheet of water
tucked snugly away among the hills.
Here for years, when the golden club
reared it's yellow crown above the
water, a pair of these exquisite birds
could be found resting and feeding
after the long journey from the south
They TESTED in an old sycamore over
hanging the water, and nearly every
year succeeded in rearing full
boood. An interesting sight it was
when the old lady escorted the
youngsters to the water Not in a
carefully padded baby carriage with
soft quilts and down pillows! Each
tiny yellow ball of fuzz was taken
