Day 302: Brant

Well, we're getting ready for a big storm to hit here in Maryland. It's very possible we will be without power for a few days this week, so I'm going to try and post as much as I can ahead of time. If posts are a little light this week, that's why!

Today's bird, the Brant, is a small dark goose that lives throughout the northern hemisphere. We see occasional flocks during the winter when we visit Maryland's eastern shore. These photos aren't the best (some of them were taken through a scope), but you can still tell how they look different from the more common Canada Goose.
