Hi KenWhen I lived in Pictou Co ( 1970-73 ), Brant were fairly common in th=
e spring. The East River below New Glasgow was a good spot. It was easier t=
o hear them than see them. Also down at the Ponds in Merigomish they would =
stay til June. I haven't visited there in many years so I don't know if thi=
s still applies.It might be good to check at the Ponds mid May however.Paul
