These geese were tagged and serologically screened. 19 of the 53 birds sighted had serologic evidence of Newcastle Disease. The migration patterns of the wild geese provided further evidence that the main resting and wintering sites of migratory waterfowl are likely to be important for the inter- and intraspecies transmission of avian diseases.
