Stephen Vincent Benet 1899-1943 get ready for ducks f unusually mild weather will hold Back the big flights a of migratory game Birds from sailing southward to their wintering grounds in Mediterranean and african climes. In the meantime the flocks of Gray geese the splinters of Brant and Teal and the big concentrations of Pochard scalps and mallards Are dunking and gab festing on the reservoirs Rivers and streams throughout Holland France and Germany. The lesser and greater scalps bluebells and Broad Bills Are divers and love to congregate in rafts offshore on the larger bodies of water especially on reservoirs such As the one that lies along the main Road Between Foelsing and Landshut and anywhere along the Rhine where the Barge traffic Down t disturb the water be tween the jetties. Scalps Are called Bergenty in Germany. They spend the Spring and summer months above the Arctic Circle and Winter in the Mediterranean. When migratory fowl whip southward they usually do so on breast of a hard Frost followed by northeasterly winds sleet and Snow. A discomforts of shooting ducks from blinds is Worth it when the flights Are on. Blinds Are Seldom available Over Here to Ameri cans but there Are some Good ones in Bavaria along the Danube near Straubing. Miss Irmgard Blaim phone Regensburg military 2635 817, can arrange some really Good shoots from blinds in her capacity As Hunting and fishing adviser for the american Rod and gun association in Regensburg  Are 27 Hunting and fishing advisers with offices in the Mili tary districts subdistrict recreation centers training areas and at he Safe and Bremerhaven. They will assist in arranging Duck and Goose Hunts As Well As for Hare and pheasant if you take the time to consult them. If you discover flyways on your own you might often obtain permission from the Bunting lease owner to maybe do a Little jump shooting or sit inside a screen of Reeds after tossing out som blocks. Perhaps your local Hunting and fishing adviser civil affairs office will help you. Gadwall Mallard Widgeon red head the Mallard is by far the most numerous of wild ducks and i comparatively easy to Decoy. Mallards Are so gregarious and such noisy feeders that they attract other tip up types such As Teal pintails shoveler Gadwall and Widgeon. It s easy to work out a Decoy system for puddles and Ponds Over Here if you can manage permission to shoot on them. Take a half dozen blocks and arrange them in a family group near the Shore line. Put a teaser on two in deep water away from the raft. Arrange the set so the wind comes from right or left never fro the front or behind the ducks will make passes Down wind Circle swing wide and sail Back in with cupped wings and straddled legs into the1 wind. The preliminary passes seem to be made to assure the Duck that All s Well and that no danger lurks below in the form of dogs foxes cats or two legged  s tempting to watch ducks come within Shotgun Range. But a gunner who Peers upwards with glistening White eyeballs at Ttoolin mallards won t get to snap a Cap. If you want meat on the table from a Duck Blind you must hide your face like a proof Reader and watch with your ears when you hear the whistle of wings. Jump shooting for Mallard is a Little More exciting because there s usually More action. But there again is that business of getting a permit to shoot a Long Stream that involves too Man boundaries. None of us around Darmstadt has seen any geese As yet but we know they Are due on the first cold front and that they will use the Broad Flat Fields along the bigger Rivers where German Farmers have planted Winter salad. To spot geese in your area drive out into the country just before dusk and find sparsely settled Flatland. You May be Lucky enough to spot a wedge or two looking for a place to Gaggle for the  there Are geese within a mile you la hear pm holler. How to get permission to stalk them at Dawn is another one of those tilings. But at least you be heard them and seen them and that s More than half the fun of Wil fowling.
