INTERNATIONAL RECONNAISSANCE

OF JAMES BAY

The close co-operation existing between Canada and the United States in the conservation of the North American stock of migra“ tory game birds under authority of the Migratory Birds Treaty was typified in a recent expedi- tton to James Bay, the southern arm of Hudson Bay, for the pur- pose of investigating conditions relating to waterfowl and shore. birds in that region

The survey was made by Dr. Harrison F. Lewis, of the Lands, Parks and Forests. Branch of the |Canadian," Department of" Mines and Resources and Mr. Harold B. Peters, of the Fish and Wildure Service of the United States De- partment of the Interior, who travelled." 825 miles about James Bay, chiefly on the motorboat Charles Stewart, placed at their disposal by the Indian Affairs Branco.

They visited settlements on both shores of the bay studied duck, geeks, and snipe on the broad coastal marshes, and inspected a number of large islands, including Aktmiski and Charlton which äre both beaver preserves.

A special inspection was made on the Hannah Bay Waterfowl Sanctuary, established early In 1930 by co-operative action of the Province of Ontario and the Dominion Government,

Although a number of Indlaris and some white men were found bunting near the sanctuary, large numbers of waterfowl and shore- birds, including great flocks of Blue Geese, were found enjoying peace and tranquillity within 17.

The Blue Goose is the most im- portant of the migratory game hirds of James Bay. It nesta chiefly on islands north of Hudson Bay, but during its migrations It ecommonly occurs in thousands in the James Bay swamps and maraifes
