when do canada geese migrate uk

Canada geese in the UK are generally sedentary and do not migrate. While migratory populations of Canada geese still migrate seasonally in North America between Canada and the United States or Mexico, the population introduced to the UK in the 17th century has adapted to a resident lifestyle and can be seen year-round across most of the country. In North America, migratory Canada geese begin their southward migration as early as August, with peak southward movements in September and October, and northward migration resuming in March and April. However, the UK population does not follow these migration patterns and remains locally throughout the year.
