Folks, a lovely weekend. Noted flock of ten Brant at low tide just north
of the Marina. Do these geese feed exclusively on eel grass? Anyone know
the distribution of eel grass in the southern the Puget Sound coastal
areas? What about the status of Brant in general?

This is the second group of Brant to move through the immediate
coast in the last few migration weeks. Thanks for any information.
