AM Verbeek 1966 Chen hyperborea 8 June Between South salt lagoon and Honey Bucket lagoon, about 500 m. from the sea shore I noticed one Snow Goose standing on a bare patch. The bird showed the characteristic rusty stain on its head. When I got to close, it stretched its shoulder blades and then moments later it took off. The same bird was probably seen yesterday. 9 June On our way to Footprint lake we saw one Snow Goose in the company of three white-fronted Geese at the mouth of Voth creek. On our way back there were 4 snow geese in the general area. 12 June Two Snow Geese flew inland from Elson lagoon along the South Shore of Ukpik Slough at 22:20. 20 June. A flock of 18 Snow Geese flew by from the edge of Honey Bucket lagoon at 20:00 and flew East. Chen hyperborea is now Chen caerulescens (Snow Goose) per AOU 1993
