Cade 1959 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.
