"It's a great many miles to my own cabin, but it's home all home after I get into the forests. My cabin is at the lower end of God's Lake, three hundred miles by dogs and sledge from Thoreau's three hundred miles as straight north as a niskuk flies." "A niskuk?" said David. "Yes a gray goose." "Don't you have crows?" "A few; but they're as crooked in flight as they are in morals.
When no flocks were near, the boys would jump out of their nests and, by some racing and frolicking on the ice, keep themselves warm, as there was much of winter still in the air. The cry of "Niskuk! niskuk!" A queer accident happened to Frank. As a small flock passed over the nest in which Sam and Memotas were sitting Sam blazed away with his last barrel, just as the geese had gone by.
It is called Niskepesim, from `niska, goose, or `niskuk, geese, and `pesim, month. The Niskepesim, goose moon, which corresponds with our April, is followed by Unekepesim, frog moon, as then those denizens of the swamps and ponds begin their croakings. In our North Land frog moon corresponds with May.
