By WM. EAGLE CLARKE, F.R.S.E., F.L.S. ON the 28th of September last, while in search of migra- tory birds at Fair Isle, I put up from a patch of potatoes, where it was hiding, a dark-coloured Willow Warbler, which I at once suspected belonged to some species I had never before seen in life. I was fortunate enough to secure the bird, and congratulated myself, as I contemplated its out- stretched wings each with a conspicuous single bar and its well-defined, pale, superciliary stripe, on the capture of the third British example of the Greenish Willow Warbler (Ph. viridanus). On my return to Edinburgh, however, I was agreeably surprised to find that my bird was undoubtedly an example of Eversmann's Warbler (Ph. borealis] a bird which had not hitherto been detected in Britain.

  • The Dunbartonshire Local Biodiversity Action Plan
    The Dunbartonshire Local Biodiversity Action Plan Version 2 (Draft) for HEED Committee, 2010, amended after public consultation i Page 1 of 115 Foreword by Convenor (East Dunbartonshire Council and West Dunbartonshire Council) – tbc ii Page 2 of 115 The Dunbartonshire Local Biodiversity Action Plan Foreword Welcome to the Dunbartonshire Biodiversity Action Plan! The plan, created through a formal agreement with East Dunbartonshire Council and West Dunbartonshire Council, and co- funded by Scottish Natural Heritage represents the final action plan required to deliver full support of biodiversity conservation by local authorities and biodiversity partnerships across Scotland. Aimed at the general public, schools, conservation interest groups, businesses, non- government organisations and Council departments, the plan aims to give a very broad overview of the issues facing nature conservation in Dunbartonshire today. The plan, though complex in nature, will hopefully reflect the problems we face along with the potential of change we can achieve. Our natural resources are threatened from a variety of factors such as climate change, urban expansion, habitat degradation, poor management, lack of awareness and anti-social behaviour. It is extremely important that we stress the urgency with which we need to address such issues and encourage sustainable use of the landscape and protection of its species. The Plan will be divided into 4 main parts. The first part will give an overview of biodiversity, the reasoning behind the drawing up of the Dunbartonshire Local Biodiversity Action Plan and finally the funding streams and mechanisms that could be used to implement the work. Exciting times lie ahead for Dunbartonshire – the collaborations formed through the Dunbartonshire Biodiversity Partnership will enable us to focus on projects that will help improve our species and habitats thought to be in decline, and address levels of landscape fragmentation.

The GCV Green Network Partnership developed a GIS based approach to identify strategic regional opportunities for delivery of the Green Network in the Glasgow and Clyde Valley (GCV) Strategic Development Plan. The analysis uses a range of Green Network related datasets to identify strategic locations where the planning process and the targeting of resources can deliver multiple Green Network benefits. The approach was recognised by East Dunbartonshire Council as having the potential to identify Green Network Opportunities at the local authority and settlement scales providing data which could inform the production of the their Main Issues Report (MIR) and subsequent Local Development Plan (LDP).
