dltlons in the Arctic were
favorable and thus the fall
flight Is expected to consist of
more than 30 percent young
birds. With larger feeding
populations and excellent
production, more ban 150,000
brant are expected to winter
In New York, New Jersey and
Virginia.
"New Jersey has always
been attractive to brant, with
usually SO to 80 percent of the
flying population wintering In
our state. New Jersey
populations are concentrated
In the coastal zone, primarily
from Barnegat Bay south to
ape May County," notes
Russell A. Cookingham,
director of tbe Fish, Game
and Wildlife Division.
Hunting regulations have
been liberalized this year by
Increasing the length of me
brant leuon to 50 days. The
daily bag limit of two brant
remains the same.
The brant season will run
concurrent with the coastal
nne duck season, Oct. 29-
Nov. 5 and Nov. ZWan. 3.
Snow geese also art expected
to be In the state In
record numbers. The 1983
spring population of 185,000
birds also experienced excellent
production* of young
at their Arctic breeding
pound*, with more man 30
percent young birds. The fall
flight Is expected to bring
more, than 250,000 bird* to this
area, which would be an alltime
high fall population.
The Initial flight of mow
geese arrived In New Jersey
about Oct. 10. Observations of
these early flights showed a
large percentage of young
birds, which verifies the
earlier predictions of an
excellent hatch at toe
breeding grounds.
New Jersey la also attractive
to mow geese and
between 80,000 to 100,000 birds
are expected to spend fee fall
In the Garden State in at least
sbi different areas.
