Island in Heath Pool, Mary Stevens Park

At the back of the park, near Stanley Road, is this fairly large expanse of water known as Heath Pool. This little island seems to have been taken over by Canadian Geese. Possibly they have fled here to escape being hit by the large chunks of food being hurled at them from the footpath by the pool.
