  • Tayside Local Biodiversity Action Plan 2Nd Edition 2016-2026
    Tayside Local Biodiversity Action Plan 2nd Edition 2016­2026 Incorporating the local authority areas of Angus and Perth & Kinross Every Action Counts! Scottish Wildcat © Scottish Wildcat Action 2 Chairman’s Message Anyone glancing at this latest Biodiversity Action Plan for Tayside could be forgiven for feeling a little daunted at the scale of the tasks identified in the Actions. Indeed, the scale of what we need to do over the years ahead is large if we are to pass on to our future generations a land that is as rich and varied in all its forms of life as the one that we have inherited. The hope that we can rise to this challenge comes from the sheer goodwill of so many people and organisations willing to give their time and effort to look after our wildlife, whether it be found in the remoter hills or closer to home in our towns and villages. Great examples of what can be achieved when we work together with a little direction and thought applied can be found throughout the following pages. This Action Plan arrives at a time of great uncertainty, particularly in rural areas which have been so dependent on public funding for so much of our land use. Following the Brexit vote, we have to take the view that this must be an opportunity to improve on our delivery of so many of the tasks identified in this Plan and others which, if achieved, will improve the life of all of us along with all the many forms of life that we share this country with.

  • AN TEALLACH COMES ALIVE It’S One of Our Finest Mountains
    James Hawkins BEHIND THE PICTURE AN TEALLACH COMES ALIVE It’s one of our finest mountains. Now it has the painting it deserves. And it’s all thanks to a remarkable artist with a passion for colour, geology and wilderness walking. WORDS DAN ASPEL PICTURE JAMES HAWKINS ames Hawkins speaks for anyone who’s ever seen the most dramatically notched 1062m mountain in Britain when he says “An Teallach is amazing”. What Trail couldn’t get him to say (but we can now, to spare his modesty) is that his paintings of this Scottish peak capture it like nothing else you’re likely to lay eyes on. Take the image printed here. The landscape is lashed by reedy needles of rain above a shimmering foreground of heather and brush. There’s a blurry unreality to some parts and an arresting crispness to others. The mountain outline at its centre is stark. But that’s just our opinion; to find out how James makes such vivid images, we spoke to the man himself. “Being out on the hill is many experiences in one,” says the 37-year resident of Loch Broom’s shores, “and there’s a lot of movement – from the walker themselves, to the wind around them, to the trees. Trying to distil all of that, you have to create something more than just a single static image.” To achieve these he uses “a combination of memory, drawing and photographs”. This means that once back in the studio after – very likely – many walks, he’ll run a slideshow of all the images he’s collected of a certain peak and draw inspiration from “theJ colour in a bit of sky”, or “a profile of a mountain from a neighbouring summit”.

  • IN Tune with NATURE No Crop Marks
    Nàdar air ghleus – farpais sgrìobhaidh airson ceòl is òrain Inviting musicians of all genres to compose new music as part of a high-profile national composition and song writing project called In Tune with Nature. What is the competition? To celebrate Scotland’s Year of Coasts and Waters, artists aged 16+ are invited to write new music inspired by one of ten National Nature Reserves (NNRs) across the country. What do I win? The entries will be judged by a panel of well-known and highly regarded musicians and industry professionals, including Julie Fowlis, Vic Galloway, Gill Maxwell and Karine Polwart, and chaired by Fiona Dalgetty. The 10 winning artists will each win a £500 cash prize as well as the opportunity to make a film on the NNR site which inspired their music. The winning artists will be paid for their time on site making the film. There will also be the opportunity to take part in live performances throughout the year. The NNRs include: Beinn Eighe (Ross-Shire), Caerlaverock (Dumfries), Creag Meagaidh (Lochaber), Forvie (North East), Isle of May (Firth of Forth), Loch Leven (Perthshire), Noss (Shetland Islands), Rum (Inner Hebrides), Tentsmuir (Fife) and Taynish (Argyll). To find out more visit nature.scot The new work should reflect the special qualities of the National Nature Reserves, all those selected having strong coastal or freshwater elements. New Gaelic songs are particularly encouraged in the Beinn Eighe and Creag Meagaidh areas and, similarly, songs written in Scots and regional dialects would be warmly received in other areas. Artists should aim to communicate the richness of Scotland’s nature and, through this, encourage new audiences to consider the actions they may take to protect it.

  • Pib: a Memoir of Colin Pibworth
    FRANK CARD Pib: A Memoir of Colin Pibworth ike any other organisation, a mountain rescue team needs not only its Lcourageous innovators, like FIt Lt Des Graham', but equally those who, over the years, provide the structure with a focus and continuity. Whilst they do not necessarily achieve the commanding heights, their contribution is very often just as valuable. One such was Colin Pibworth ('Pib'), who died in 2001 after an extraordinarily long career in the RAF Mountain Rescue Service. In those thirty years he never got beyond the rank of corporal, though for several periods, as a team leader, he was made up to sergeant. But his influence was enormous. During my researches2 in 1992,JllY wife Jo and I visited the Mountain Rescue Team at RAF Valley. 'You must go and see Pib,' said one of the lads. By this time, I had certainly heard of Colin Pibworth, but had no idea where he could be found. But some of the team knew him, and visited him from time to time. We were directed from RAF Valley into the hills behind Caernarfon and up a steep narrow lane. Eventually we came to a tiny cottage, its roof bristling with CB aerials. A smiling man in his 60s met us at the door, cradling in his arms a cat called Tenzing. 'Why Tenzing?' I asked at some stage. 'Because he's a bit of a cloimber,' came the reply. Ask a silly question. There followed an enthralling hour or so ofstories ranging from blizzards and avalanches in the Highlands to Desert Rescue operations with the Sharjah and Masirah Mountain and Desert Rescue Teams (MDRTs).

  • Charlie Ramsay and Me: a Tale of Obsession
    SheepSheet Autumn 2015 Johnnie Watson, the Laughing Cavalier – 12th in the 2015 Montane Spine Race Notes from the Editor: It’s been a while and my apologies for the lengthy hiatus between issues but welcome all to the latest edition of the Sheepsheet, Calder Valley Fell Runner’s periodic glimpse into the weird and wonderful world of fell running, adventure racing, and outdoor self-flagellation in general. All of us enjoy some of those, but one man has demonstrated remarkable fortitude in all three at once. It’s been a while since he did it, and my apologies to Johnnie in particular for the lateness of this edition hitting the shelves. His monumental achievement should have been heralded much sooner, but a fanfare is a fanfare, and let’s all blow our bugle to our very own Johnnie Watson for his magnificent 12th place in Montane’ Spine Race. The race is labelled as Britain’s Most Brutal Race, so by my reckoning that makes Johnny the 12th most brutal man in Britain – GRRRRRRR!!!! Not bad for a nurse from Pye Nest! Well done Johnny, and not all of it in borrowed kit either! Johnnie tells us more of his odyssey up central England later. Recent months, as always, have seen superb performances and achievements from numerous club members, some of which are featured here for your enjoyment. We have seen the stellar progression of Ben Mounsey into an international-class runner, which in turn has guaranteed him residency on the back pages of the local sporting press. Again, well done Ben, it’s been a pleasure to report on your heroics and nobody deserves it more due to your graft, skill and determination.

  • Glen Strathfarrar 1757
    Title: Plan of the lands in Glen StrathFarrar. This title is taken from Adams (1979); no title on photostat. National Archive of Scotland Ref: nil, but photocopy of Mather photostats deposited in Highland Council Archives, Inverness. Tel. 01463 220 330 ref: HCA/D670. View by appointment. Location of Original: thought to be Lovat Estate Office, Beauly, Inverness-shire. Adams described this plan, as well as six others of Lovat lands, as ‘wanting’, in his 1979 publication, but apparently no attempt has since been made to trace them. Surveyor, Date and Purpose: Peter May, 1757 (as per Adams 1979); compiled as a requirement of Annexation to the Crown for the Commissioner to the Forfeited Estates, following the Jacobite Rebellion of 1745. Associated References: Mather, Alexander S., 1970, ‘Pre-1745 Land Use and Conservation in a Highland Glen: An Example from Glen Strathfarrar, North Inverness-shire’, Scottish Geographical Magazine 86 (3), 159-69. Adams, I. H. (ed.), 1979, Papers on Peter May Land Surveyor 1749-1793, Scottish History Society, 4th series, vol. 15. Description: photostats of this map were taken c.1970 from the Lovat Estate copy by A. Mather, now (’04) Head of Dept., Geography Dept., Aberdeen University, for his article in Scottish Geographical Magazine 86 (3) (1970), on land use. Working copy is a photocopy of these, although Mather’s original photostats were needed to check certain letters (not indicated here). Thirteen overlapping A3 photocopies make up this map. Professor Mather’s numbering scheme has been adopted - i.e. from west to east they are 1a/1b, 2a/2b etc, with ‘a’ the upper part of the map, and ‘b’ the lower part.
