Physical 

The Brant, also known as Brent Goose, is a medium-sized goose showcasing a primarily dark, sooty blackish-brown plumage. The species stands out due to its distinct, short white necklace on the neck and a small white patch on the flanks. Its bill and legs are black. The overall length ranges from 22 to 26 inches, and it has a wingspan of about 42 to 48 inches.

Habitat

Brants prefer coastal environments, especially tidal estuaries, marshes, and mudflats. During the breeding season, they migrate to the Arctic tundra, where they utilize wetlands for nesting.

Feeding 

In coastal regions, their diet mainly comprises eelgrass and other marine vegetation. When inland, especially during breeding, they feed on a mix of grasses, sedges, and aquatic plants.
