E.M. Brock 1967 European Wheatear Oenanthe Oenanthe Oenanthe A.R.H. Pt. Barrow, Alaska May 29 Went into the field today with Bill Maher. At a location about two miles east of the oil well near beach ridge Bill shot and collected a wheatear. This was the only one seen. This bird seems to differ in the field, by the fact that it stands up more erectly than the longspur Aug 15 Cape Sabine North of Pitmegea River, Northern Alaska Walked about tundra for a long time without seeing any wheatears. Hank Child claims those seen today are the first he has seen here at Pitmegea. We did not see any until we were walking along a rocky bar "lithosol" area were the first wheatear was seen and shot. More another and another was seen until at least six were seen right near the lithosol area near the established campsite. I shot four of these and later prepared two as skulls, skins, Childs prepared one the other will probably be prepared later.
