| counting geese | 30 July 2021 | 
| Today, we are counting the number of moulting geese on the islands in the fjord. Mo, Christophe and Maarten are making a big tour with the zodiac. | |
|   | |
| On Leirholmen, we find a dead barnacle goose killed by a great skua. | |
|   | |
| On Sigridholmen, we find fresh tracks of a polar bear. | |
|   | |
| On Gerdøya, alarming arctic terns make us check the southern tip of the island before landing and here we see..... | |
|   | |
| Christophe has an enormous camera with long lenses and while the bear is far away, he can make these pictures. | |
