4 Quail. 13 Duck.
i Gun. May 25th, '88 (droughty season). 17 Quail. 6 Snipe.
On one occasion whilst shooting in these marshes around Chefoo I had the pleasure of witnessing a most interesting little clipping, out of one of Nature's books.
A duck got up very wild out of some high reeds, and started off down wind as if he was going to fly for a week. While watching his flight and blessing my ill luck, as I had killed little or nothing that day ; I noticed a falcon dart out from some trees, and st...art off in hot pursuit of the now fast vanishing duck, who, on discovering his peril, turned straight back and flew for his life for the refuge of the reeds, that a few moments before he had so hurriedly quitted.
And now a most exciting chase took place. All former enemies were forgotten in the presence of this new 7 danger ; round and round they flew once whirling past within twenty yards of where I stood, the hawk stooping and striking repeatedly, but all to no purpose, so quick were the turns of the terrified fugitive.
