Summary 
In the Island of Newfoundland a total of 39 square miles of waterfowl 
habitat was examined by the author during the latter part of May. 
Seven separate localities were surveyed and a total of 572 individual 
waterfowl was recorded. The black duck was found to be the most abundant 
breeding waterfowl and this species was followed closely by the Canada goose. 
Green-winged teal and goldeneye were next in abundance. Ring-necked duck, 
scaup and mergansers completed the recorded breeding waterfowl.
