[EBB Sightings] Brant continues at Miller-Knox

This rainy morning (Sat, Feb 2), the BRANT continued at Miller-Knox 
Regional Shoreline in Richmond.  He was foraging with Canada Geese on 
the lawn by the first parking lot.  There were unusual numbers of 
shorebirds sheltered around the lagoon, although we found nothing 
more interesting than a Semipalmated Plover.

I think the Brant must have imprinted on Canada Geese.  He hangs out 
with them.  He feeds like them.  And when the Canadas started 
honking, he raised his little head in the air and let out a nasal 
chortle-honk: bup-b-b-b-bwong!  Silly and sad.

Good birding,
