on the right with two Brant (Black)
Observation details
first reported by James Kennerly and Jody Wells with detailed description; seen with around 200 Brant (Black) that flew into Island View Beach at sunset, just after 5 pm; this juvenile Gray-bellied Brant was spotted near the outflow loosely associating with 4 or 5 Black Brant; notable features include lighter brownish plumage on the back with bright white fringes on the coverts, white flank patch with brownish striping (crescents) near the rear, and brownish striping on the breast in front of the white flank patch (instead of low contrast between dark neck sock and dark breast), and small, partial neck collar; thanks to James and Jody for the detailed description allowing for spotting of this unusual bird in our waters
