Lemmus thimincvovates
20 June Middle Cohills - between Oolamwagouik
and Chisat. Mouse sign became
noticeably less conspicuous, below
the mouth of the Killik River - just
as it did last year. Roughleg were
not occupying as many cliffs as in
1956 & 1957, but gyrfalcons along
this stretch were slightly taking quite
a few short-eared owls - but the
latter may have been gotten from
distant locales.
July - 5 Aug
Lower Cohills - below Chisat - no-
where along the lower Cohills main
the delta beyond mouth of Killik River was sign of hunting
noticeable. The roughleg rests on
the lower river had very few
migratory warblers - mostly levels
and gravelly shrubland - and productivity
seemed to be low - many of the
nests contained only one or two young.
