The Bean Goose is a rare winter visitor to Britain. There are two regular wintering flocks of Taiga Bean Goose, in the Yare Valley, Norfolk and the Avon Valley, Scotland. A formerly regular flock in Dumfries and Galloway no longer occurs there. Tundra Bean Goose has no regular wintering sites, however, it is found in small groups among other grey goose species. Among the most regular localities are WWT Slimbridge, Gloucestershire and Holkham Marshes, Norfolk. More

As a result, there is no immediate concern regarding the population of this bird species. More

The Bean Goose is an uncommon winter migrant in the UK. There are two species - the Taiga Bean Goose (anser fabalis fabalis) and the Tundra Bean Goose (anser fabalis rossicus). In Scotland there is a wintering flock of Taiga Bean Geese on Fannyside Moor near Cumbernauld which, in winter 2005/2006, numbered about 240 birds. These birds are notoriously wary and very difficult to approach making photography difficult. More

Bean GooseA key factor in maintaining bean geese in the valley is the availability of secure roosts close to the feeding areas. The main site is a quite small, well hidden and tree-fringed lake. Very exceptionally the birds have roosted at Rockland Broad and on the river itself. The enigma began lifting one winter when to everyone's surprise 22 bean geese appeared in the valley carrying neck bands. More

The bean goose is one of the 'grey geese'. It tends to be darker and browner than the other species in this group, and to have a darker head and neck. It breeds in north Scandinavia, north Russia and north Asia, and visits Britain in small numbers in autumn and winter. Most of the birds that winter here come from Scandinavia, where the breeding population has declined in the last 20 years. More

Taiga Bean Goose Anser (fabalis) fabalis Taiga Bean Goose is now treated by some authorities as a distinct species from Tundra Bean Goose.

The latter can, with patience, usually been seen from either Cantley or Buckenham but the views afforded are usually poor and distance is a problem. More

Regular counts have been made at the Yare Valley since the 1960s; more recently, monthly counts are made during winter by the RSPB. Age assessments have recently been instigated at both of these sites, although the phenology of this population in the UK makes data collection logistically difficult. More
