  • Anke-Beate Stahl
    Anke-Beate Stahl Norse in the Place-nam.es of Barra The Barra group lies off the west coast of Scotland and forms the southernmost extremity of the Outer Hebrides. The islands between Barra Head and the Sound of Barra, hereafter referred to as the Barra group, cover an area approximately 32 km in length and 23 km in width. In addition to Barra and Vatersay, nowadays the only inhabited islands of the group, there stretches to the south a further seven islands, the largest of which are Sandray, Pabbay, Mingulay and Bemeray. A number of islands of differing sizes are scattered to the north-east of Barra, and the number of skerries and rocks varies with the tidal level. Barra's physical appearance is dominated by a chain of hills which cuts through the island from north-east to south-west, with the peaks of Heaval, Hartaval and An Sgala Mor all rising above 330 m. These mountains separate the rocky and indented east coast from the machair plains of the west. The chain of hills is continued in the islands south of Barra. Due to strong winter and spring gales the shore is subject to marine erosion, resulting in a ragged coastline with narrow inlets, caves and natural arches. Archaeological finds suggest that farming was established on Barra by 3000 BC, but as there is no linguistic evidence of a pre-Norse place names stratum the Norse immigration during the ninth century provides the earliest onomastic evidence. The Celtic cross-slab of Kilbar with its Norse ornaments and inscription is the first traceable source of any language spoken on Barra: IEptir porgerdu Steinars dottur es kross sja reistr', IAfter Porgero, Steinar's daughter, is this cross erected'(Close­ Brooks and Stevenson 1982:43).

  • Merganser in the Hebrides 2018
    Merganser in the Hebrides 2018 Not counting the voyage from Tollesbury to Ardrossan on the back of a truck we travelled 1200 miles through the inner and Outer Hebrides in May, June, July and August 2018. ‘We’ comprised my wife Liz and I, the true boat-dog Jester and a series of friends for a week here and there. Merganser, a Haines 340 offshore motorboat proved the perfect boat for the trip. A displacement cruiser capable of 18 knots but giving us 400+ range at 8 knots, she had spent her previous few years as a flat in St Katharine’s Dock, hence the family nickname ‘The Sitting Duck’! With two Yanmar diesel engines, generator, 2 double cabins, two bathrooms, 2 large holding tanks, heater, sheltered steering position in a Bimini upstairs and panoramic views from inside the saloon she could hardly have been more perfect for a meander around the Scottish NW. All this and only 1.2m draft allowing access to all the most sheltered nooks and crannies. We chased the truck up the A1 on May 14th and finally caught up the next day just as Merganser was kissing the water in Ardrossan marina at the mouth of the Clyde. After a day of the usual preparation and making sure we had enough stores to be independent out in the islands we set off to Arran. Almost as we left Ardrossan the wind dropped away and the sun came out...it was the start of the amazing weather and, with hindsight, we could not have been luckier with the timing of our ‘sabbatical’! Before going further, it is probably worth setting the scene a little more.

  • Barra and Its History: Through the Eyes and Ears of a Modern Seanachaidh 1 Calum Macneil
    Barra and Its History: Through the Eyes and Ears of a Modern Seanachaidh 1 Calum MacNeil THE reason I am giving this talk tonight is actually because last year, I think it was in April, were the Society for Northern Studies in Barra and there was quite a few speakers travelling with them and I had to do a talk on Barra. Because of this I intend to concentrate mostly on the people of Barra as most of the speakers had specialist subjects. I did it without notes so I have to try and keep to that same kind of talk as I had the last time because they requested it to be recorded and that there be an audience ... and that is the reason for the talk tonight. ... People I make no apology for speaking mainly about the people of Barra because I feel that wherever you are living in any part of the world it's the people that actually are the most important part of an area. Without people a place really isn't what it ought to be. There are quite a lot of islands in the Western Isles in particular who used to have people living in them and for a variety of reasons they are now abandoned. Latterly it has to do with the fact that the young tended to prefer to live in larger communities and that is quite understandable. The difficulties of isolation that they had to face were fairly overwhelming and because of that they felt they moved on to a bigger town, a bigger place.

The Argyll name is "the cell of the ceann, "end" or "head", and while the latter son of O'Cormack", while the Islay name is part of the name is unclear, it may be related simply "the cell" or "the church". to Kenknock and the Gaelic name of Brig Keiloch (Aberdeen), An Caolach.

  • Scottish Islands
    This is the definitive list for Scottish Islandbaggers. (Islandbagging = The obsessive compulsion to visit island summits.) Rick Livingstone’s Tables of THE ISLANDS OF SCOTLAND ¾ A register of all islands 15 hectares, or more, in area. That’s 37 acres, and roughly equates to a circular island ¼ of a mile across. ¾ Includes tidal islands, islands which are bridged or have cause-ways and freshwater islands.

It has recently been suggested that differences in the range and rate of decline among bumblebee species may relate to differences in their degree of habitat specialization. We examine biotope use by 17 bumblebee species in the Hebrides, southern UK and South Island, New Zealand. We identify a cluster of widespread and abundant species that occur in almost all biotopes and exploit man-made environments such as gardens and arable margins; this group corresponding to the “mainland ubiquitous” species of previous studies. A second grouping of species includes those associated to varying degrees with heathland. It is notable that some species occupy markedly different biotopes in different parts of their range; for example B. soroeensis is found largely on upland heaths in the Hebrides, but on calcareous grassland in the south. Some species, such as B. subterraneus and B. distinguendus, now survive only in specific rare biotopes and could be mistaken for habitat specialists, but it is clear from their historic distributions that they formerly occupied a broader range of biotopes.
