The Brant Family Within the brant family are five well defined species. As is the case with true geese, they enjoy wide distribu­ tion throughout the northern hemi­ sphere.

All races of Canada Geese are marked alike. The Serving the world for 61 years head and neck is black with the famil­ iar white cheek patch. As is true with all members of the brant family, feet and bills are black. The body color ranges from gray to brown, depend­ ing upon sub-species and, as is true with most geese, the pigmentation is darker on the back than on the under­ side. During recent years, certain races of Canada Geese have enjoyed a substantial increase in population. This is largely as a result of their capa­ bility to adapt to an environment which has a close proximity to humans. As an example, they are fond of golf courses, where they are fre­ quently encountered in substantial numbers. The tender green grasses and waterways are much to their lik­ ing, and they don't hesitate to partake of an inviting environment. The true Brant are represented by four sub-species. These are the Atlan­ tic Brant, the Pacific or Black Brant, the little known Laurence's Brant and the Russian Brant. Brant are unique among geese in that they are almost exclusively marine in habit. Other than when they come ashore during the nesting season, almost their entire life is spent upon salt water. They feed upon marine vegetation, especially afa WATCH BIRD 55 eel grass, which is a great favorite.
