Followup: Brant return to West Seattle, right on schedule
November 22, 2009 at 2:54 pm | In Seen at sea, West Seattle news, Wildlife | 1 Comment
Alki Point wildlife watcher/writer Guy Smith shares that photo with news of the first brant sighting – just two days after we published his story about the small geese who return to West Seattle waters (and elsewhere in Puget Sound) Thanksgiving week every year (see Guy’s story here). So – just like clockwork, they’re back; Guy photographed these a bit earlier this afternoon.

Wonderful article, beautiful pictures of these cute birds. I think I might have seen some brant geese near Lincoln Park today. Wildlife like this makes November in Seattle almost bearable.
