Also the Greylag geese from the Scheelhoek have an unique distribution pattern. Most birds in this breeding population are purely resident. Only a few individuals have neglected this rule and crossed the North Sea. These birds are located around the mouth of the river Thames and even breed overthere. There are also a few observations from Flevoland, waterland and the Lauwersmeer.
