H.T.L. Schaanning. B ird F au n a of E a st F in nm a rk 6. Bluethroat / Luscinia svecica (L. 1758) / Cyanecula suecica (L. 1766) Bluethroat is widespread across the whole of Sor-Varanger and nests in large numbers, especially in coastal areas. It is found more rarely south of Salmijarvi and not every year in the same number. In 1902 birds of this species were especially numerous in 0vre Pasvik. The spring arrival takes place in the last week of May. In Hestefoss the first individuals were seen on June 1, 1901, May 27, 1902, May 24, 1904, May 29, 1905, and June 1, 1906. Egg laying takes place in mid-June. The first egg was laid, accordingly, on June 13, 1900, June 20, 1902, June 6, 1905, and June 9, 1906. 7 eggs are found more often than 6. Most of the nestlings leave their nests during the first week of July. Autumn departure takes place late in August. The latest date I saw bluethroats was in Hestefoss on August 27, 1905. In three clutches the eggs were 17.5-20.5mm long and 13-15.5mm wide. The overall length (30 mature individuals) is 145-160mm. 39. Snow Bunting / Plectrophenax nivalis (L. 1758) / Plectrophanes nivalis (L. 1766) Snow Bunting can be found in large numbers in the Pasvik estuary as early as at the end of March, and disappears about the first of May. Only a few cou ples stays here to nest on the steep slopes of the Varangerfjord. This happens annually everywhere in Skogero and Kjelmoya, in Bugoyfjord and Jakobselv. Spring arrival in 0v re Pasvik took place on April 5, 1901, March 23, 1902, March 24, 1904, March 20, 1905 r, and March 31, 1906. Egg lay ing begins in the first half of June. 5 eggs are found more often than 6. Once I saw 7 eggs in one nest. In four clutches the eggs were 20-23 mm long and 15-16.5 mm wide. The overall length (212 mature individuals) is 176-185 mm. In 1903 they nested in large numbers on the Novaya Zemlya Island. In some places colonies were formed on pebble-covered slopes and in mountain ravines. Spring arrival in 1903 took place on May 12. Egg laying started in the second half of June. Thus, in 6 nests, the first egg was laid on June 20, June 25, June 25, June 25, June 27, and July 5. The first chick hatched was found on June 30, and the first fledging was seen on July 24. On June 23, a nest was found accidentally, without eggs; on July 8, there were 5 hatched chicks in it. Consequently, those 5 eggs were laid and hatched just in 15 days. 66. Eurasian Roller / Coracias garrulus (L. 1758) / Coracias garrula (L. 1766) In October 1868 one exhausted Eurasian Roller was found, it lived in the Varangerfjord area, near Nyborg (70° N). That specimen was sent to the University Museum (Collett 2, p. 54). On Novaya Zemlya, one dead individual was found in ice in March 1903 (kept in the University Museum). 1 8 1
