Cape Sable Island has been named an IBA  (Important Bird Area) because for =
five species of birds=3B the brant being one of them. They concentrate ther=
e to feed on eelgrass on their annual migration to the far North to the bre=
eding grounds.  It is one of the best places to see several hundred at one =
time. For a few years we in tourism industry held a 'brant festival' there =
as these small geese=2C who feed all around the island daily gather near th=
e Hawk to fly together at dusk to their night roosting area. One year as do=
zens of folk watched they flew directly over our heads at the church on the=
 hill at the Hawk.  It was most impressive & we cheered when it was over. W=
ell worth the trip to Cape Sable Island=2C Shelburne County - a great birdi=
g area any time.
