Simon Rix in Oslo has been out looking for the bean geese and has reported back with a couple of shots of a flock of 61 birds resting on the Glomma river at Akershus.
Conditions as you see are icy and surrounding fields are snow bound. See pic below from 2018 when I visited the area with Simon.
With fresh snow forecast for the area it will be interesting to see what the birds do next. Stick it out or return south.
Further news from Trondheim would indicate our bird 7V is still in the area and now has Whooper Swans for company.
