Tor Bønes reported about 100 Pink-footed geese at Langøya (Hadsel and Sortland) on sunday 25th. “The geese-areas” in Vesterålen are still covered by snow, so it’s a late spring this year.
Total counts of Pink-footed geese in the Nord-Troendelag area on sunday 25th gave the total number of about 40 000 Pink-footed geese (from Levanger in south to Overhalla in north).
Largest amount of geese are located in Verdal and Steinkjer.
Torsdag 22. april 2010 ble “Forvaltningsplan for vår- og høstrastede kortnebbgås i Nord-Trøndelag” lansert. Målet er en bærekraftig forvaltning med redusert konfliktnivå.
In the middle of day about 7 000 pink-footed geese where located at Frøsetvågen, south of Steinkjer. Also 4 barnacle geese, 4 white fronted geese and 1 bean goose among them.
Later this evening the geese where spread more out in the area – and I was not able to find them all.
