| | Today, a mounted groundskeeper patrols the shores, and politely asks trespassers to leave — though some trespassers are allowed to finish their walk and urged to get permission before landing again. | | | Periodically, Kerry talks about his ties to the island, his memories of family gatherings during his childhood, more recent experiences windsurfing off its coasts, or asserting his brotherhood with sportsmen by recalling adventures with his cousins shooting deer there. | | | Only caretakers and sheepherders live on the island year-round. |
