wildfowler.250 Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 Does anyone know if they can be shot in Scotland or not? I have only ever seen one,(so I assume it's feral from a collection) but I am guessing we could get them in from Greenland or somewhere and thus protected? Not wanting to shoot one but handy to know!

Pole Star Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 Didn't think so they are pretty birds! Heard a pair of them nested here in Orkney last year but not too sure how true that is ? but a chap I had up shooting last season saw what he described as a goose size & shaped bird that was white all over , & not a swann ? . Not sure about shooting them though . Pole Star Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildfowler.250 Posted August 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 They aren't on the basc list so guessing not. I'm 90% sure it was a snow. I was hoping it was a white Canada :yp: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
