Wild Geese on Migration. 
A WRITER in the Daily Mail gives the following 
interesting description of the proceedings of wild 
geese on the point of migration; At the end of 
March or during the first week in April, all the 
gray geese in the Outer Hebrides collect in one 
place before taking their departure for their nest- 
ing haunts within the Arctic Circle. To esti- 
mate ‘their numbers is impossible, and to behold 
this vast concourse of geese is one of the sights 
of a lifetime. The vast host of birds stand packed 
together into a huge phalanx till the king of the 
graylegs starts the flight. As the old leader as- 
cends, a hundred thousand voices salute him, but 
none stir tili from overhead he gives the call for 
his subjects to follow him. Some fifty birds rise 
in the air and follow him, and as they go gradu- 
ally assume the wedge-like formation, with three 
single birds in a string at the apex of the triangle, 
and in a few minutes are out of sight. When they 
have been fairly started, the king returns, and 
aiter a few minutes’ rest he rises into the air 
again, and the same process is gone through be- 
fore he leads off another batch. Again and again 
he returns until all are gone but 300 old veterans, 
which rise to meet him in the air as he flies back 
to them. Then, with their sovereign at their 
head, these also wing their way toward the Pole, 
not to return to our shores until the following 
October.—Shooting Times (London).
