Oche feed molto di più in gran parte sulla vegetazione terrestre rispetto a quello che fanno le anatre; una buona crescita di trifoglio ed erba fare pascolo eccellente per loro; nell'acqua, la loro alimentazione su impianti di acqua ma non mangiano insetti ed animali di qualsiasi misura. Senza dubbio la lingua d'oca è variata ed esprime molte cose. Oche parlare con ciascun altro e chiamare da lontano; essi fischio di avvertimento e m mak generale

Bird Study 139 which a gander gave me when I was a child, holding me fast by the blouse while he laid on the blows. Geese feed much more largely upon land vegetation than do ducks; a good growth of clover and grass make excellent pasture for them; in the water, they feed upon water plants but do not eat insects and animals to any extent. Undoubtedly goose language is varied and expresses many things. Geese talk to each other and call from afar; they shriek in warning and m general make such a turmoil that people do not enjoy it. The goslings, even when almost grown, keep up a constant "pee wee, pee wee, " which is nerve-racking. There is a good opportunity for some interesting investi- gations in studying out just what the different notes of the geese mean. The goose is very particular about her toilet; she cleans her breast and back and beneath her wings with her bill; and she cleans her bill with her foot; she also cleans the top of her head with her foot and the under side of her wing with the foot of that side. When oiling her feathers, she starts the oil gland flowing with her beak, then rubs her head over the gland until it is well oiled; she then uses her head as a "dauber" to apply the oil to the feathers of her back and breast. When thus pol- ishing her feathers, she twists the head over and over and back and forth to add to its efficiency. WILD GEESE '^2 HERE is a sound, that, to the weather-wise farmer, means cold and snow, even though it is heard through the hazy atmosphere of an Indian summer day; and that is the honking of wild geese as they pass on their southward journey. And there is not a more interesting sight anywhere in the autumn landscape than the wedge-shaped flock of these long-necked birds with their leader at the front apex. "The wild goose trails his harrow, " sings the poet; but only the aged can reme
