T. Cade 1958 Clangula hyemalis 18 June - east of Barrow On the flight with Mahew and Shanks, several were seen on lakes, but not as common, it seems to me, as usual. 19 June Barrow - while setting out the traps lies we saw only two or three pairs. 20-22 June Barrow - one pair seen daily on a pond just in back of ARL on the road out to Evanslie's hut. 23 June - this duck seems to be down in numbers this year - at least relatively - it is less common than pintail and Steller's. Few scattered pairs seen in adjacent ground around Central Marsh. 5-26 June Coal Mine - Meade River - few pairs have been seen on lakes within half mile radius of the village - also flying along the river. A single drake seen on lake "Hmi" S of ARL swannigen. 28 June A male seen on a pond in the marsh adjacent to T2. 29 June Pair seen on a lake across the view from the village. 30 June - Three pairs seen on separate small lakes on our walk down river this afternoon,
