Egyptian geese (Alopochen aegyptiacus) are related to the shelduck; introduced as an ornamental wildfowl species, some individuals have escaped into the wild where they are now successfully breeding. There are an estimated 700 breeding pairs and a population of 1000 wintering geese; they can be seen all year round on ponds or gravel pits, with the highest numbers being found on the North Norfolk coast and in the Norfolk Broads.
