Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the north west coast of Scotland and around Skye there are islands galore, hidden beaches, tide races, great places to enjoy the local seafood and amazing people to meet. All of this set within a fantastic, variable culture of Norse and Gaelic influence that go to make this an area you will return to time and again. Ardnamurchan Point to Cape Wrath, the names of the headlands at either end of the area contained within these pages, even have their own section in the weather forecast. Fifty great voyages are described in a way that is both inspirational and informative. Details of launching and landing sites, tides and potential hazards are provided and the coast is described in exquisite detail. This means that it can also be used as a kayaker's 'pilot' for any journey they might wish to undertake in this area. It follows the successful format of other Pesda Press sea kayaking guides, presenting the information in a user-friendly fashion and making good use of maps and colour photographs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1904 edition. Excerpt: ... This was the only notice of the Smew I had within the area, until in some scrap-notes amongst Buckley's West Ross files I find the entry: "Smew: Braemore, January 1887." But I have, so far, failed to trace the specimen. Order COLUMBE. Family COLUMBID.E. Columba palumbus, L. Ring Dove. Resident, but not numerous. I saw a pair at Uiginish last April, and five at Dunvegan last December. Captain Macleod and Captain Macdonald consider it rather scarce. Mr. Dumville Lees has met with it.--H. A. Macp. Dixon records that Ring Doves are "few but resident, and breed in the parish of Gairloch, and he has seen their nests in high trees." This was in 1888. Hinxman and Eagle-Clarke found it "fairly abundant, and, as elsewhere in the Highlands, decidedly on the increase." This was in 1893. By 1896, Mr. A. H. Evans says: "The nest may be found occasionally on the ledge of a rock." (I have myself seen the nest of this bird in a niche of old masonry of the old castle on the island of Loch an Dorbh, in Moray.) Fairly numerous, and breeds along Loch Carron in numbers varying according to the character of the season. I have not found it spreading at all rapidly, however, further to the north, viz. in Assynt or Edderachyllis, though in 1901 and 1902 there were more there than formerly. One seen at Glam on the island of Raasay by Hinxman in June 1896. Columba cenas, L. Stock Dove. Messrs. Hinxman and Eagle-Clarke appear to accept the following record: "We also have the record by the Rev. Edward S. Marshall that he shot a Stock Dove, in late August or early September 1877, close to the shooting lodge of Dorusduain, Kintail, West Ross, and frequently saw birds of this species when fishing the River Croe "--a set of occurrences somewhat extraordinary, judging...
