abstract
Individu al variation in spring migration strategies was analysed for neckbanded Pink-footed Geese Anser brachyrhynchus migrating from Denmark (D) via stopover sites in the Trondheimsfjord area (T) in mid-Norway and Vesteralen (V) in northern Norway to the breeding grounds in Svalbard, 1990-97 . Body condition of marked individuals was assessed by use of an abdominal profile index before departure from Denmark and before migration from Vesteralen where the majority of geese stop before departure to Svalbard.
