P. D. Benedich 1945 Motacilla flava 27 June Barrow, Alaska - Heard a warbler - a rough but singing call rather like a redpoll but higher pitched, and looked up to see two birds about the size of longspurs but thinner, bright yellow bellows with dark olive backs and black tails, fly past over the Barrow area with a strongly undulating flight. They certainly have been this species, judging from what I know about them and from what we saw. 29 June One heard (and a lot seen) flying N over Miccosukee Marsh in the evening.
