  • Bute Bird Report 2012
    Bute Bird Report 2014 Compiled by Doug Menzies (Assisted by R. W. Forrester and I. Hopkins) This is the third annual Bute Bird Report. This report is a record of bird sightings on the Isle of Bute, including Inchmarnock and the Burnt Islands, for the period 1 January to 31 December 2014. It is produced principally from records submitted to the Bute Bird Group web site and logged on its recent sightings pages. It updates The Birds of Bute (2012), which detailed all bird records on Bute to the end of 2011 and follows the Bute Bird Report 2013 (2014). Thanks are given to all contributors of records for this report. This report includes species that were not recorded on Bute during 2014 but have been recorded in recent years on more than five occasions. During 2014 a total of 147 species were recorded on Bute. This is 2 species less than were recorded in 2013. Notable omissions from this year are Woodcock, which undoubtedly occurs in small numbers and Golden Plover a bird that is usually seen at some time during the year. The Bute list now stands at 215 species. One of the highlights of this year was a pair of Garganey first observed on Greenan Loch by Ian Hopkins on 23 April. This pair was seen frequently by a number of local birders until they were last recorded on 28 April. This was only the 2nd Figure 1: Garganey (male) at Greenan record of this species Loch on 23 April, D Menzies. for Bute, the first being a male photographed at the Kirk Dam on 27 April 2000 by Norrie Mulholland.

  • The Ship Bells in the Bute Museum
    56 Transactions of the Buteshire Natural History Society vol XXVII (2008) The Ships’ Bells in the Bute Museum: their Provenance and History Ian Maclagan The three ships’ bells in the Bute Museum are connected to each other and to HMS Varbel, the name given to The Kyles of Bute Hydropathic in Port Bannatyne which served as the headquarters of the 12th Submarine Flotilla during World War II. The 12th Submarine Flotilla operated Britain’s midget submarines and human torpedoes or chariots. The oldest of the three bells1 is of solid brass. Its clapper has an elaborately knotted rope handle. The bell is mounted in a varnished mahogany stand or tabernacle2 across the top of which is carved in block capitals HMS Varbel 1942. The letters and numbers are picked out in gold on a mid blue background. Inscribed on the bell in block capitals is the name of the ship to which it originally belonged, namely London Merchant of 1923. The bell from SS London Merchant. The Kyles of Bute Hydropathic – HMS Varbel 1942 - 1945. 57 In the middle, age-wise, is the bell3 from the first HMS Rothesay (J19), a second World War Bangor class minesweeper. This bell is of solid brass and on it is inscribed the ship’s name and the date of her construction 1940. The reverse has a Board of Ordnance stamp. Also in the museum are the ship’s crest4 and the ship’s battle honours5, which were carried by the second ship to bear the name. The minesweeper saw service in the English Channel from her commissioning until 1945, off the North African coast in 1942/43, at Sicily and Salerno in 1943 and at Anzio and off the South of France in 1944.6 Rothesay was broken up in 1950 by T.W.

Hard copies will be subject to a £50 charge. NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY Development/Project Mowi Scotland Limited proposes a new Atlantic Salmon farm in Kilbrannan Sound, named North Kilbrannan, situated just north of Cour Bay and about 9 km north from the existing Carradale North farm. The proposed infrastructure is 12 pens of 120 m circumference each, arranged in a 2x6 regular grid; associated moorings to the seabed; a feed barge; and 3 ancillary single point moorings. North Kilbrannan has a SEPA Controlled Activities Regulation (CAR) Licence (CAR/L/1168182) to operate up to a biomass of 2475.54 tonnes. Benthic Environment Uneaten food and faeces are the main components of particulate waste generated at a fish farm, which may impact the benthic environment. This assessment considers the impacts of the proposed North Kilbrannan farm, arising from organic (carbon) deposition and in-feed treatment residues.
