Adult Brent geese and their chicks. The families are very close and stay together


Bureau mulder-natuurlijk: siberie 2005

Trapped!
Bart Ebbinge will close the door and we can start to ring the birds. In
total we caught 292 adult and 116 juvenile Brent geese in several
actions.

Adult Brent geese and their chicks. The families are very close and stay together
at least until the following breeding season. Young of the year can be
recognized by the white rims of the feathers on the back. This enables us to
establish the breeding success of the preceding season by counting the
number of adults and young on the wintering grounds. The proportion of first
year birds in the winter of 2005/6 appeared to be about 40%, very high
indeed!
