South Wamses Seal colony
South Wamses Seal colony
Saturday 29th October comments: The latest Seal pup count is complete and numbers are looking very healthy on the islands. A total of seven islands now boast pups with over 400 born. The job took two days (due to weather and visitor opening hours), but we're happy and can rest in the knowledge that all is well with the Seals on the Farnes. Just to let you know, the Farne Islands seal pups will feature on tomorrow's evening Countryfile on BBC, so don't forget to watch!
Latest colony counts:
South Wamses 157
North Wamses 133
Staple Island 92
Northern Hares 16
Brownsman 26
West Wideopens 1
Little Harcar 1
Total: 426
