HUNTING
THE
RAILBIRD

by very few people and in very few
places But one of the most famous
places is within 80 miles of Washington
Ideal country for hunting the drab starting
sized bird abroad river marshes that flood to
foot or 10 inches at the height of the tide and
provide food the bird favors- occurs in the
Snake-like bends of the Patuxent River few
miles below Upper Marlboro and provides one
of the two or three best places on the East
Coast to shoot sora.
Unlike hunting for quail, pheasant or even
dove, sora shooting is known to comparatively
few bird hunters and almost unheard of by the
general public. The chances are that a rail
shooter is the son of a rail shooter.
Yet 1t is an intriguing sport that requires a
good sense of balance and fast reflexes more
than the sophisticated eye for lead shooting
that marks the accomplished duck or dove
shooter.
The technique for hunting sora today is
unchanged since gentlemen hunted in top hats
and guns were loaded through the muzzle
Shooting has to be done at peak tide for
two reasons. The sora, given his choice would
rather run away than fly and will flush only
when water is in the marsh. Secondly, the
shooting is done from a boat and there must
be enough water to allow the craft to be pushed
through the marsh
The gunner stands little forward of the
middle of light skiff about the length of a
canoe and only slightly more stable. His legs
are braced the left forward of an eightinch
seat and the right one behind it. A 'pusher"
stands on a small deck at the rear and propels
the boat with 16-foot pole which comes to
three prongs at the end to help give it purchase
in the mud of the marsh.
AS the boat moves through the marsh, the
sOra may rise anywhere in broad arc to the
front and sides. The bird takes low, graceless,
leg-hanging flight that may extend for as much
as 20 yards and then drops quickly back into
the thick vegetation. Noisy enough on the
ground the sora are silent in flight and one
must mark them, aim and fire in about three
seconds.
The season for hunting rail on the Pa
tuxent is in September and October and the
duck hunters much deSpiSed "bluebird
weather" so calm and pleasant the ducks
won't move arOund-is ideal Weather, good or
bad, plays no part in rail shooting except when
prevailing wind drives enough water out of
the river that high tide doesn't cover the
marsh
There is a peculiar beauty to the Patuxent
marshes at this season of the year. At times the
shooter moves through high stands of wild
rice. In other places he will encounter water
lilies or cattails and, now and again, an acre

flush in its strong, striking flight and overhead
group of teal or black duck may wing past.
Appreciation of all this beauty is inter-
rupted frequently, for example, by the sudden
struggle for balance when the surging skiff hits
a tough clump of grass or veers from the re-
sistence of a particularly strong reed. A wide
stance and broad oaths help here Once in a
while the gunner will be startled by the pusher
bringing down his pole with whack on the fol-
iage near the boat to flush birds. And when
there are several boats on the marsh the
pusher periodically sings out high-pitched
''wh0O" to let other gunners know where he is
and so reduce the possibility of being pep
pered with shot.
But the interruption the shooter waits for
is the pusher's cry of mark left" or Mark
right" Sometimes, in excitement, the cry is
merely There he isr' which can lead to some
panicly head-swiveling and a sight of the bird

refer to simply as "a tide" may last from less
than two hours to nearly four, depending on
whether or not it is good" tide and how long
it takes the shooter to get his limit of IS birds
marsh at all.
On the Patuxent the pusher is likely to be
the son, grandson and possibly greatgrandson
of pushers. Out of rail season he may farm for
tobacco, guide fishing parties or follow num-
Der of other callings. For sora shooting. his
special qualities are his knowledge of the
marsh, his consummate skill at handling the
delicate skiff and, most remarkable, his ability
toremember and find as many as three downed
birds that can't be seen from more than two
feet away.
Mrs. James H. Greenwell, of Bristol, Md,
who keeps booking dates for the pushers at
Pig Point, is also working in family tradition.
Mrs. Greenwich has been doing this for IS
years, and the Greenwell family since before
the turn of the century
Beyond the pleasures of the hunt, the
reasons men shoot the sora include its taste.
They are delicious, small as they are, whether
fried, broiled, roasted or steamed.
And though the people who follow the
sport are few, they have included some rather
famous ones.
Charles Bias, fourth-generation puSher,
will tell you that his father used to push for
Babe Ruth regularly The Babe had reputa-
ton for surprisingly poor balance in the boat;
Mr.. Bias says the ball player would fall into the
marsh as many as 10 or Is times on tide.
Another famous rail shooter was Gen.
Billy Mitchell. The general, who was noted for
