Some of the many #LightBellied #BrentGeese gathering on #StrangfordLough, #CountyDown.
Taken on #iPhone through a #Nikon spotting scope.
Yes, that’s #Stormont in the background.

One of the #family groups of #BrentGeese arriving on #StrangfordLough from the #arctic.
Looks like it’s been a good season - quite a few goslings among the adults ☺️

The #Brent are back!
Thousands of #LightBellied #Brent #geese return to #StrangfordLough from the #arctic each #autumn to swait-out the #winter. It’s always a joy to see them - their chattering is an iconic sound of autumn.
#WWTCastleEspie is the perfect spot to see them.
