Constellation Park has been a reliable site for Brant since my youth, which was back when they were called Black Brant.

I thought I'd mention this, as it was surprising to me. Today I was down at Constellation Park, just south of Alki Beach and saw a large flock of brant. They were feeding and hanging out, and occasionally took to the air when a bald eagle flew in. It was lovely to see and hear them. I imagine they are on their way north. There might have been 100-200 birds.
