Forsamlingen på skærene
Grey seals are hauling out on the low rocks before the pupping season, and the questions Polly has been taught to ask about families turn out to be the wrong shape for them.

Polly valgte en stor sæl. "Hvor mange er I i din familie?" spurgte hun. Han tænkte længe. Alle på denne klippe, sagde han. Og alle på den næste.
"Har du nogen brødre eller søstre?" Næsten helt sikkert, sagde han. Han vidste ikke hvilke. Orkneyøerne har omkring toogtyve tusind sælunger hvert år.
Polly prøvede en sætning. "Jeg vil gerne bruge tid sammen med min familie i dag." Det lød mærkeligt her. Så prøvede hun: "Selvom vi bor langt fra hinanden, holder vi altid kontakten." Den er tættere på, sagde sælen.
