FORMOSAN TEAL.
(Nettion torn1oSd.)

(Nettion tormosa.)
During the winter. throughout
Southern and Eastern China as we'll
as in Japan, especially in the south
ern districts, the Formosa teal is
quite abundant. While no reliable
data concerning the breeding range
of this species has been found, it is
believed to lie in Northern and East
ern Siberia between the 48th and
list or I'D parallels of latitude and
the 80th and 175th meridian of east
longitude.
Though the female is CARRIED in
dull brown, resembling greatly the
European teal on the mantle and
scapulars, and having also a lead
colored bill with a scattering of
freckles, her mate is handsome
fellow. The crown of his head, the
patch on the back of his neck and
the bridle-like stripe across his face
are velvety black. This is a startling
contrast to the remainder of his
face, which is white or buff.
Extending from each eye, there is
brilliant rnetallic-green patch
bordered with black and white in
narrow stripes. The upper plumage
is heavily marked with gray. and
black. On the upper breast, the
roundish black spots seem more in
tense because of the snowy white
under-plumage of the body. At the
bend Of the wing, there is a cres-
centic white band. The large blue
black bill, legs and feet of yellow,
and the dark brown eyes make UP a
color combination which, with the
beautiful plumage, is easily remem-
bered.
In q group of pals, these ducks
are very shy. After setting up
housekeeping, the mates often con-
verse In low tones. The female pos
sesses ducklike quack which is used
as an alarm cry. But her mate has

BY all means take them with you
and make an attractive setting for
them.
A shadow-box cupboard will do
the trick. The one shown here is
light and substantial; will lend
glamour even to dime store odds
and ends, and may be placed on
top of a table, a chest of drawers
or a desk. No special skill and
almost no tools are needed to
make it.
If you do not have a saw to cut
the scalloped frame, mark it on
plywood and take it to the nearest
woodworking shop to have it cut.
You may have the straight boards
cut where you buy them. Then
all you will have to do is to screw
them together; tack on the front
frame and paint or stain to suit
your room color scheme.
