Our Pale –bellied Brent geese are still with us and
feeding themselves up for their long journey back to breed in Eastern High Canada Arctic. Due to lack of time all these shots are SOOC. There were also some adult Herring Gull with a few juveniles, Oystercatcher and Rook. If you are interested in knowing more about these Brent and seeing better photographs and video I made a post previously which will explain this to you if you CLICK HERE.
I am linking this post with WILD BIRD WEDNESDAY.
Many thanks for your visit and also your comments.
Beautiful images Margaret.
ReplyDeleteThat is a very long journey. A very, very long journey.
ReplyDeleteNicely captured images. It seems strange to see am Oyster Catcher in a field.
ReplyDeleteLoving the quacking character in the third picture!
ReplyDeleteThose birds have such a remarkable migration ahead of them ... You certainly can't blame them for "stocking up."!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great selection of images and birds Margaret! I really like the last shot - like a naughty child caught with chocolate around its mouth!
ReplyDeleteHello Margaret, I love seeing the Brant geese. Our spelling is different for these same Geese. The Oystercatcher is beautiful too. Great post and photos. Happy Tuesday, enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteThanks for introducing me to a new bird!
ReplyDeleteYou got up close and personal with these birds! Nice shots.
ReplyDeletewhat an interesting collection Margaret.
ReplyDeleteAmazing shots, dear Margaret !
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful remainder of your week, dear frien, sending much love to you,
with thankfulness

Awesome shots, Margaret! Have a blessed day!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing some nice images of the Pale-bellied so that I can make a direct comparison to the Dark-bellied that I regularly see here in the winter.
ReplyDeleteCanada Geese are back at our cabin getting ready for nesting time. They aren't as sleek as yours. - Margy
ReplyDeleteThose Brent Geese are just so handsome. Really like the Oystercatcher too. I have a pair on my local patch that I am hoping will breed.
ReplyDeleteHandsome geese!
ReplyDeleteNice series of photos! I really like that Oystercatcher!
ReplyDeleteVery attractive geese...I especially liked the photo of them with the red building/home behind in the background...it give the image a lot of Old World Charm.
ReplyDeleteGeese in general are a handsome species ... the Brent Geese are unique to me as we don't have them here and I find them to be beautiful. I admire their migration skills ... I can't even imagine having the strength or the perseverance it would take to migrate the way they do. Great shots, Margaret ...

Love those colors!
ReplyDeleteThe Gull is a great addition.
Have a Happy Day, Margaret!
Peace :)
Looks like the geese have found a few other friends. I love the smooth feathers on these geese.
ReplyDeleteGulls and Geese just seem to go together. The markings of these birds is remarkable.
ReplyDeleteVery handsome indeed! Thank you, nicely done!
ReplyDeleteAlways nice to see what birds you encountered on your travels.
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely Geese! Those Gulls are lovely too!
ReplyDeleteThe Brent Geese are so much nicer to see than the usual Canada Geese. Great pictures.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos, beautiful colours :)
ReplyDeleteLove all the shots!
ReplyDeleteLovely series of birds!
