St. Mary's Brent

We took the opportunity this morning to go to St. Mary's Island just as the tide was dropping and just about clearing the walkway to the island. Lots of birds around including this Brent Goose which appeared to be all on its lonesome.



I understand that the lack of white neck patch, and the upper-wing coverts tipped with white, indicates that it is a juvenile
