Short abstract from the book:
The goosander is a rare breeder in Denmark, but a common winter visitor in inner Danish waters. In Denmark most of the goosander ringing has been performed over a few years. Birds are either caught in duck decoys or by hand. Apart from one, all the recovered birds were ringed in Zealand. The recoveries indicate that the few Danish breeders stay close to the breeding site year round. The winter visitors come from Finland, Russia, Estonia and Sweden. Norwegian goosanders are mainly found in Jutland and Finnish birds chiefly in eastern Denmark.
