Mallards banded at Lake Chautauqua, 1939-1944, 1947-1952. behavior, there is an evident relationship in recoveries between time and distance. It also seems apparent that there is a seasonal relationship between time and distance traveled. Table 19 shows the mean miles per day traveled by age and sex classes of seasonally banded samples of mallards. Miles per day were derived from the distance of the banding station to location of the band recovery in relation to time.
