The carcasses of 7 greylag geese have been found dumped  on the foreshore at the Loch of Ayre, St Marys, Holm.

The birds had been shot and their bodies butchered to remove breast meat.

Shooting geese is legal but dumping carcasses on a public beach isn’t.

Please get in contact if you know anything about this incident of if you have come across dumps of dead geese elsewhere in Orkney.
