GAME AT THAMES
POACHERS SPOIL DUCK SHOOTING DEER VERY PLENTIFUL From Our Own Correspondent THAMES, Monday. The duck-shooting season opened with many guns at work, but few birds shot. Not that birds were not plentiful, but despite the activities of rangers there has been sufficient early poaching to make the birds very wild. Only in one case has the maximum ba.g been reached. Pheasant shooting is also in full swing, but birds are not numerous. Deer-stalkers are most enthusiastic. They report any amount of deer in the hack-country of the Coromandel Range, but state that owing to the dense bush and precipitous country they find the quarry difficult of approach.
