Black Brant in flock of 275+ Pale-bellied Geese |
Thursday I spent the day looking for the Black Brant that had been seen with Brent Geese near Newquay on the north coast of Clare
I checked the fields around the shorelines , the reefs and the Loughs from Finvarra to Aughinish , plenty of Brent geese and other local birds but no Brant.
In the afternoon small flocks of geese started to head to a field in Munnia where I was waiting. I had been patient and sure enough the Black Brant joined the flock of 275+
