Black ducks banded at McGinnis Slough. Cook County, Illinois, 1940-1947. and indirect recoveries for the latitude of the banding station (41°-42°) would be the same, inasmuch as local direct recoveries represent the time remaining during the hunting season which the ducks spent in the vicinity of the band- ing station. A small proportion of black ducks (as shown by the difference between di- rect and indirect recoveries) either stopped at the latitude immediately north of the banding station or continued south to other areas, principally between southern Illinois and northern Missis- sippi. The direct recoveries show a north- ward reversal of movement from Mc- Ginnis Slough. Nearly all of the black ducks went no farther than 1 degree north (Table 26). Such northward move- ments may represent birds searching for new feedins grounds, or those that over-.
