BirdNote: Black Brant Fly on By
Aired:
10/19/2008
Fifty years ago, on the shores of Puget Sound, you would have been much more likely than today to hear the calls of the Black Brant, a small, elegant, black, brown, and white tidewater goose. Most now bypass Puget Sound and other West Coast estuaries, and migrate directly to Mexico. Shoreline development, wetland drainage, and a decline in abundance of their favorite food, eelgrass, have forced Black Brant to bypass the Puget Sound.
