the Ducks Unlimited "Ducko
logical". Chief Naturalist Bert
W. Cartwright goes on, "Condi
tions as they exist over the
whole range and the duck .crop
now in sight are both infinitely
better than they were last year
at this time". -
The report states that nesting
success has been variable to date
throughout the prairie region
and among different species. In
Manitoba, first nestings by mal
lards and pintails in pothole
country has been disappointing.
Blame is placed on. floods, agri
cultural activities and predation.
Best nesting -success in this area
to date goes to the canvasback,
Up to June 25, recorded mallard
a species which nests over water,
broods averaged 9.1 young. .
A heavy duck crop from first
nestings is reported from both
eastern and western Saskatche
wan. Yet the famed Caron Pot
holes study area of southern Sas
katchewan, a region with a nest
ing density of over 100 breeding
pairs per square mile, showed
only 12 per cent success from
first attempts.
The same heavy production is
western and central portions of
attributed to southeastern, south
Alberta. A. considerable area of
southern Alberta is undergoing
drought conditions and some
broods have been lost, especially
among the Pintails. Canada
Geese are enjoying a good year
in this region, particularly, in
the Eastern Irrigation District,
where many Ducks Unlimited
projects are located.
Swinging to water conditions
generally, Cartwright states,
"Except for the drought area in
southern Alberta, there is ample
surface water almost every
where to see hatches from seer
ond nestings safely on the wing
. . . This is subject to a continu
ation of favorable weather con
