B J Geese. !! !! !!
-
Our Trent-side village is also the residence for hundreds, upon hundreds of migrating Geese, using the river embankments as their own . They see the adjoining, cultivated arable fields as their free and bottomless larder and the attractive stretch of river as a superb environment for living, breeding and bringing up their young .

These "B J Geese" - Canada, White-Fronted, and Greylag species, create endless, disgusting , mushy, foul- smelling droppings all over the area and the local walkers footpaths… uugh! Especially if you find your shoes and boots clogged up with the vile smelling c***. - Despicable .. but not so., the numerous beautiful, serene families of Mute Swans who also share our stretch of the River Trent .

Although the local farming community use their shotguns and bird-scaring devices to restrict and limit the geese flocks destruction of local vegetation,

-
Just to emphasise the problem, the Environment Agency also finds it necessary to undertake periodic "organised culls" .. .. .. for many individual consider them to be VERMIN
