Ungava Bay: It has not yet been established whether the peregrines nesting in the Ungava Bay area belong to F. p. tundrius or the F. p. anatum. In 1985 four areas in the Ungava Bay area were surveyed: the Gyrfalcon Islands; the Leaf River basin; the Payne-Arnaud River, from its mouth to the first rapids; and the Koksoak River, north of Kuujuaq. The Koksoak River was surveyed by canoe; all other areas were surveyed once by helicopter during the last week in July. Survey results are shown in Table 6 together withthe results of the 1970,1975, and 1980 surveys. The areas surveyed in the Ungava Bay region have not been the same each time, so it could be misleading to compare the survey results directly. However, the population does seem to be reproducing effectively. Note that "young per pair with young in nest" may be an over-estimate of productivity because the chicks observed were quite young. Ontario: — Wildlife Branch, Ministry of Natural Resources, Whitney Block, Queen's Park, Toronto, Ontario M7A 1W3. Areas of eastern, central and northern Ontario were surveyed between early May and late July 1985 (Figure 4). Eastern (more accessible) sites were reached by canoe; northern and central sites were reached by large boat or aircraft. Each site was visited once and whenever possible observed for five hours. Both historical (35) and potential (23) sites were visited. No evidence of nesting falcons was found at any of the 58 sites visited. A lone male occupied a territory in Arnprior. Surveys of all known historical sites and some potential sites in 1970 and 1980, and a partial survey of historical sites in 1975 failed to discover evidence of recent or current occupancy of any sites or non-b
