From September through March
we hear a great deal about the
whooping entries. It la doubtful If
any other species of wildlife gets
as mach publicity during these
months as this bird It is all because
it looked like they might become
extinct.
Thousands of dollars and many
man hours are spent each year
witching after this beautiful, won-
derful bird that makes Texas its
winter home.
This year at the Aransas Wildlife
Refuse we have tome 35 whoopers,
Including nine young. This is the
largest crop of young birds since
1940-41. when apparently there
w< re a dozen young birds.
Last year Texas sent 26 birds
b-rk to the North Country. The
previous high count had been 34
birds in the winter of 1949-50. Of-
ficials of the Bureau of Sport
Fbhcrle; and Wildlife, of the XJ. S
Fish & Wildlife Service, are happy
Over this Increase which now
brings the t lal to 41, Including
those In captivity.
The whooper Is a marvelous bird.
Winging Its way across the marsh-
es of South Texas from one point
to another, It I a giant among
other waterfowl and shore birds
b’c-iuse of its nuiiestio size and
beauty.
It really Is a shame that more
people do not go to the Aransas
W'ildlife refuge each yea*, to see
these magnificent whoopers. There
Is so much to be learned, so much
thrill to be had.
This refuge is located near Aust-
well, south of Vhtoria and Refugio.
It is coastal land facing In San
Antonio B y and It abounds in all
kinds of wildlife There are visiting
hours so that persons may drive
through parts of the area in their
ca^s. Wild deer and turkey often |
are seen, along with all types of
water birds.
In fact, tlie Texas OrnPhologlral
Society holds frequent pilgrimages
there. On the backside of the ru-
fttee there Is a lookout tower, some-
thing like an oil derrick, where you
may climb to the top and watch
the wildlife thro-i :h powerful glas-
near Muleshoe, and In North Tex-
as the Hagerman refuge on Lake
Texoma. Any of these refuges are
available to the public. They will
give a new insight to what is be-
ing done to protect wildlife and
prevent its extinction.
Visiting one of these refu'-'es ran
be a dual purpose trip. When you
go to the coast, be sure to take
your fishing tackle along. There Is
excellent fi hlng to be had on coas-
tl waters adjacent to the refuges.
The same is true at Lake Texoma.
TV t; -time wsek-end.
Wlldhf1’ always knows where it
has protection. The same Is true
or. some of the state parks and
mo,t certainly in the Big Bend
National Park, west of the Pecos.
If you are interested In wildlife
photography, you can really have
a field day around one of these
parks.
Incidentally, wildlife photography
offers a very interesting hobby for
the entire family, too. Outdoor
publications »rs filled with lovely
pictures each month. Some of these
pictures are made by hobbyists,
who have mastered the use of good
cameras.
You can have as much fun with
your camera, outdoors in Texas, as
you ccn with your gun and shooting
film is In season the year ’round.

Occasionally you can see the big
whoopers and observ’d them as
they move about the marshes, or
fly overhead.
No firearms or dogs are allowed
in the refuge. There is an agree-
ment with the Game A- Pish Com-
mission which permits the state
to trap wild deer for transplant-
ing in other areas and you’ll see
tl: i- deer traps scattered widely
over the place.
The shore line of the refuge is
very interesting, with enticing fish-
ing waters In the bay. Boats will
be’ working in these waters with
their nets.
In the evening it is thrilling to
see the ducks and geese that have
born feeding In the rice and grain
fi- Ids of the hinterlands b’gin their
dally trip back to the coastal wa-
ter. Ducl.s and geese, flying In for-
m-tion and coming out of the
evening sunset will run a chill down
the bark of any man.
The wint< r months really are the
best for these coastal trips if you
Just want to see birds. Usually
there are plenty of cabins available
in such coast towns as Fulton
k1 Beach. Rockport, Aransas Pass and
along the highways at other points.
It Is a nice trip for the family,
nn opportunity to let all tire chil
dren enjoy the wonders of nature
It also is a good trip for mother
and dad filled with the thrills of
winging waterfowl and shore bird
watching,
There’s oven a state park nearby,
ft carries the name of Goose Is-
land Park. Camping Is permitted
in this park, and good fishing is
claw at hand.
Of course there are other wild-
life refuges in Texas. Farther down
the coast near the mouth of the
Rio Hondo there is the Laguna
Atascosa Wildlife Refuge. In the
Panhandle there Is another refuge
The installation of the system is assured, but the
drive will continue in an effort to make possible a third
channel and the installation of a second tower if neces-
sary.
