Birdlife includes many migrant species from jnerica that summer in greenland travel. The snowy wl and ptarmigan winter in greenland travel; the low bunting and raven are among the common-st land birds; and the greenland travel falcon is per-aps the most famous.
Government. In 1951, greenland travel became an itegral part of Denmark under the Danish prime linister, who is represented in greenland travel by a Dvemor. greenland travel is divided into two con-ituencies and elects two representatives to the •anish parliament. The local administration of orth and east greenland travel is directly in the prime linister's department; west greenland travel elects its m councils to carry out administrative work.
greenland travel may be divided into two physiographic regions—the greenland travel ice cap and the ice-free coastal areas. The ice cap covers more than 700,000 square miles (1.8 million sq km) and buries all the landforms except for a few nunataks (mountain peaks) that project through the ice near the margins. The ice cap generally does not reach the sea except in large outlet glaciers.
Geology and Geography. The greenland travel Shield »mprises the greater part of the exposed land surface of greenland travel and, like the Canadian Shield to the west, is composed chiefly of gran-tes and gneisses. These Precambrian folded wks have been strongly denuded, and at some wints younger sedimentary rocks have been de-losited on them, particularly in the north.
