DUCKS AND GEESE 73 A single nest is frequently found containing eggs of bothcanvas-back and redliead, but usually only one duck sits onthe eggs. LESSER SCAUP DUCK The Lesser Scaup, Little Black-head, Little Blue-bill,Creek Broad-bill, Raft-duck, and Flocking-fowl, are someof the numerous names applied to this species. Three varie-ties of scaup ducks inhabit North America — the greaterscaup, the lesser scaup, and the ring-necked scaup. Whenmigrating, the lesser scaup frequents both fresh and saltwater, but during the breeding season it is usually seen inthe interior. In general appearance and habits, this duck resemblesthe great scaup, but averages one and one-half inchesshorter. In many localities it is the most abundant duck;this is true of the Calumet region of northern Illinois andIndiana. The little scaup furnishes royal sport to the gun-ners, especially during October and April, being easilydecoyed. ISIany lesser scaups, especially the males, linger on LakeMichigan six months i
