Sex, Age, Comment | Family flock - 2 adults and 4 young birds. The age field marks are very clear here: Adults with the heavy neck patch, whitish vertical lines toward the flank and uniformly colored gray wing coverts. The only birds I saw this year. Apparently a late family stopping over for a while to forage before heading further on toward the Channel region. Dark-bellied because of the dark belly and flank, and dark between the legs. The only type of Brant regularly seen in the eastern part of Denmark. | ||||||||||||
