Life on Canna: part two

In the second instalment of her visit to Canna, Jackie heads to sea with ranger Tom Allen to learn all about the island’s seabirds. The island’s cliffs are packed with a whole host of nesting birds, making Canna an important colony site for many of Scotland’s species.

Then, Jackie gets to know some more of the people who call Canna home, including the harbour master.

As she dives into the stories of Canna, Jackie discovers some of the unique challenges and rewards of living on the island, and why the people who live there love it so much.
