J flPPUAaeEs Of Feldman & Olson Electric Main & Bartlett SP 2-2456 Ducks are Different - " Just as People Are Ducks, like people, have varying degrees of personali ties, habits and. individual characteristics. They do not follow a prescribed pattern of behaviorism. We had under our observation a flock of 12 semi -wild -, mallards. . 'There were 10 females and two perky drakes. In , a general way all the females looked exactly alike; the two males resembled identical twins. Happy Bunch They were a happy bunch of ducks. They ate at regular intervals. They had a large pond to swim in and a wide area around the little lake where they could walk or hunt worms and insects. Dur ing .the day they lolled under the pond-side bushes. At night usually they banded together in a tight little group and slept comfortably on the sur face of the water, safely sep arated from the nearest shore and its night foraging preda tors by several yards of. water. Before going to sleep for the night and even sometimes during the hours of- darkness they talked softly with one another. Sometime these "conversations" went on for an hour, and strangely en ough, usually only one duck "talked" at a time. The others seemed to listen politely.- Later in the evening, by the time the darkness was abso lute, only an occasional drow sy murmur came from the dark pond; the duck colony slept. Long before thes first pale streaks of, light showed in the eastern sky they were all awakened and alert, busily bobbing their heads under water, searching for tidbits that always seemed to be present on the pond bottom! During the forenoon they fed leisurely. By . midday, their crops full, they swam ashore and chased insects for an hour or so along the edge of the pond. Then they'would rest" in the shade of a bush, preen their feathers and talk softly to one another. We humans who daily watched began to notice the differences between the mem bers of the flock. -There was one who always slept leaning sharply to one side. He al ways IQOKea ,99 - li,. ne . were propped up and dangerously off-balance. One, slept by stretching" her -neck: . straight out in front. Each had man nerisms unlike the others. Each had something about it that was peculiar to itself alone. Baffled There was one that had us baffled - a drake. For some reason he seemed different from all the others, but the unusualness, whatever it was, completely eluded us. Yet we knew he was doing something that was odd. The fact he seemed different eventually helped to dear up the mystery because we began watching him- closely to see what he was doing that was out of the ordinary. We concentrated on him until we nearly embar rassed him with our constant attention. One day we had the an swer. It was ridiculous. He crossed or "short-circuited.',' Maybe he was "wired up wrong ' for instead of wag ging his tail from side to side, in a duck-like manner, he wagged his up and down.
