All the sea lochs on Mull hold otters and, with the coastal roads, the otters are relatively easy to spot.

  • Calmac Winter Reliability Mull & Iona Ferry Committee Version 3, 05/05/2019
    CalMac winter reliability Mull & Iona Ferry Committee Version 3, 05/05/2019 First presented to CalMac MD Robbie Drummond on 18/02/19. This version contains cancellation and wind data through to the end of the winter 18/19 timetable period. What the users think Mull & Iona Ferry Committee are undertaking an online users’ survey, that at the time of writing is still open. These are preliminary results after more than 700 responses. We are including some selected results here that are pertinent to the reliability issue. Here you can see clearly that the most important attribute of our ferry services is reliability. What the users think Not only is reliability the most important attribute, it is also overwhelmingly perceived to be worsening. What the users think What is your over-all level of satisfaction with the service? Oban - Craignure There is huge disparity of satisfaction between Oban – Craignure and Lochaline – Fishnish. Why? Lochaline - Fishnish Reliability One of the main differences between the two services is reliability. Here you can see the cancellation rate of the two routes over the last 20 winter timetable periods. There is a strong upward trend on the Oban – Craignure service, whereas Lochaline – Fishnish does not seem to be showing such a deterioration. Throughout this long period, the main winter Oban – Craignure vessel has not changed. Reliability The problem does not seen to be restricted to Oban – Craignure. Here you can see how it compares with some other major-vessel routes. Reliability Infact, the entire CalMac network is showing a decline in reliability. Note that these figures are all showing weather- related cancellations only, and have been calculated as a percentage of scheduled services.

  • Assistant Warden Oronsay/Colonsay RSPB Scotland Living and Working in Oronsay the Assistant Warden Role What's It Like Living
    Assistant Warden Oronsay/Colonsay RSPB Scotland Living and Working in Oronsay The Island of Oronsay, connected to Colonsay by a tidal strand, is just under 600 hectares in size, leased by the RSPB from its owner. Oronsay is a beguiling mix of rugged hill, rolling sand dunes, grassland and machair. Its special nature is reflected in the designations applied to it; SSSI, SPA and SAC with many archaeological sites and scheduled ancient monuments – including an ancient priory. The SSSI and SPA designations mostly apply to chough and corncrake, both of which species depend on positive agricultural management. To manage these requirements, the RSPB runs an in-hand farming operation, with a current herd of 47 native Luing suckler cows and flocks of Scottish black-face & Hebridean sheep (total 600). The 47ha of in-bye grasslands, arable, marsh & enclosed machair provide the winter keep for the cattle & sheep. These late cut grasslands produce an abundant food source for a wide range of species, as well as a wealth of botanical diversity. The extensive grazing regime supports a mosaic of habitats important for a different suite of flora & fauna. Throughout the Hebrides, the tradition of a mixed farming practice is being lost, leading to a loss of biodiversity. It is therefore very important that Oronsay continues to deliver rich mosaic of habitats to support biodiversity through its farming practices. The Assistant Warden role We need you to help manage this complex site. This is an ideal developmental role with an unusual mix of hands-on agricultural work in close partnership with high-end conservation delivery and biodiversity monitoring.
