Brent geese over North Norfolk: I counted ten geese, then sets of ten geese, then sets of a hundred. There were over 3000 geese in this flock. This was at a beer shop near Wells-next-the-sea, I went in and said how amazing it was having flocks of geese overhead like this. The shop owner, who also ran a farm that grew barley for beer and whisky makers throughout the country, and he said that they were a nuisance, nipping out all the new barley buds when they wintered here.
