Shelduck / Canada Geese - Skokholm Update

In response to Richard's post... our one Shelduck family dropped from six to four ducklings a few weeks ago, but those four have got pretty big and in the last few days have been making their way around the edges of the island. With the main pond rapidly drying up they're presumably thinking about crossing to the mainland.

Also absent, though not so missed, are all our Canada Geese.
