Mother Carey's chickens and Dr Watt's ponies (Friday, September 7, 2012 - 11:20)
Before the autumn is out and 'Stormie Season' has officially ended, I want to write a short piece about a mysterious little bird that's found around the island - the European storm petrel Hydrobates...
The soils and seas are alive! (Monday, August 20, 2012 - 16:44)
Apologies yet again for the long break between this and the last blog, and as there's over two months news from the island to catch up with, I had better just get on with it, so here goes!I: Of...
Our latest goodies.. (Monday, May 21, 2012 - 09:56)
Sorry for the lack of updates over the last few weeks or so... it's been pretty manic on here lately with plenty to record and organise; for the island, its definitely the busiest time...
Sausages and shipwrecks (Sunday, May 6, 2012 - 13:29)
Where do I start when so much has happened over the last few weeks?There's been a beach clean up at Kilmory; lots of migrant and nesting birds; emerging butterflies; a flowering plant growing frenzy...
Easter seabirds stories and songs (Monday, April 23, 2012 - 14:25)

There’s been some fantastic early spring weather since the 21st and the east to southerly airflow has brought in a good number of returning bird migrants. The first greenshank was back in from warmer...
The Tystie Crevice (Thursday, March 22, 2012 - 21:51)
If you’ve ever wandered around the ferry terminal in the quiet of the evening or first thing in the morning (or just when the ferry isn’t coming in), you may have noticed a striking black and white...
Wildlife gardening does pay! (Tuesday, March 20, 2012 - 01:49)
After yesterdays chance encounter, you could definitely say that spring bird passage is well and truly underway. At a time when Rum was feeling a bit birdless,and nerdy birdy excitment was only...
Signs of spring (Tuesday, March 13, 2012 - 20:40)
In the depths of winter it’s sometimes hard to remember what summer actually looks and feels like on Rum (like elsewhere I suppose), and after a long wait it finally feels as if the island is turning...
