Barnacle Duet

The Barnacle Goose is a medium sized goose with a fairly long neck and short, small bill. Larger than the Brent Goose and smaller than the Greater Canada Goose, its white or creamy-coloured face and forehead and crisp black and white appearance immediately distinguishes it from these other species of black Branta geese. They are very sociable birds and breed in the Arctic. They migrate through Norway and spend the winter on the Inner Solway coast in Scotland. They fly in packs in long lines and have a chorus of barking or yapping noises.
