Thanks to Martin for this shot of a serious Leopard slug found in his chicken coop. Check out this link to see their elaborate mating ritual! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VtD5dxTcXm4
Wow! Lorna and I were watching this creature last night on David Attenburgh's 'Life in the Undergrowth'. It has quite an elaborate mating ritual. I'll add link. Becky
This is a blog of natural history notes maintained and moderated by members of the management committee of the INHT: Fiona MacGillivray, Isobel Freeman, Bernard Hannett, Kate Coutts and Mark Thaxter
We are always keen for more volunteers on our committee.
We hope that many people, both those who live here and visitors, will contribute their notes and impressions of the natural world on Islay. Please send to:
Photographs, or even short video clips, are particularly welcome.
We look forward to hearing from you
Fiona MacGillivray, Chairperson
