We study the large-scale distribution of the arrival directions of the
highest energy cosmic rays observed by various experiments. Despite clearly
insufficient statistics, we find a deficit of cosmic rays at energies higher
than 10^{20} eV from a large part of the sky around the celestial North Pole.
We speculate on possible explanations of this feature.
