  • SMALL BLUE in ANGUS – 2012 SURVEY SUMMARY
    SMALL BLUE in ANGUS – 2012 SURVEY SUMMARY Compiled by Duncan Davidson, East Scotland Branch, Butterfly Conservation Introduction The Small Blue is a UKBAP priority species, which has suffered severe declines in recent decades. This project was set up to help understand the butterfly’s status in Angus and to achieve the following aims over a five year period: gain a definitive view of the distribution of the butterfly and its foodplant, Kidney Vetch identify new and potential sites generate awareness with landowners and others develop plans for the conservation and extension of colonies 2012 was the first year of the project, when it was planned to survey historical sites and identify potential action sites. As a first step, the county was divided into survey areas and volunteers chose particular areas of interest. This was initiated at a volunteer training day in Arbroath, where there was a enthusiastic turnout of 14 volunteers. The following survey areas were designated: Barry Buddon & Carnoustie East Haven to Elliot Seaton Cliffs Lunan Bay, Ethie to Usan Montrose & Kinnaber Friockheim to Balgavies Forfar Glamis Barry Buddon & Carnoustie Because Barry Buddon is a military site, access can be difficult and it was planned that survey work would take place during the annual visit arranged through Dundee Nats and others, on 24 June. In the event, there were five separate sightings of Small Blue and one volunteer recorded Kidney Vetch in a number of other areas. It took one volunteer five visits to Carnoustie dunes before he saw a handful of Small Blue butterflies on 19 June, so sometimes perseverance is required.

GENDER REFLECTIONS: A RECONSIDERATION OF PICTISH MIRROR AND COMB SYMBOLS by Traci N. Billings A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Anthropology at The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee December 2016 ABSTRACT GENDER REFLECTIONS: A RECONSIDERATION OF PICTISH MIRROR AND COMB SYMBOLS by Traci N. Billings The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, 2016 Under the Supervision of Professor Bettina Arnold, PhD. The interpretation of prehistoric iconography is complicated by the tendency to project contemporary male/female gender dichotomies into the past. Pictish monumental stone sculpture in Scotland has been studied over the last 100 years. Traditionally, mirror and comb symbols found on some stones produced in Scotland between AD 400 and AD 900 have been interpreted as being associated exclusively with women and/or the female gender. This thesis re-examines this assumption in light of more recent work to offer a new interpretation of Pictish mirror and comb symbols and to suggest a larger context for their possible meaning.
