Welcome

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:

inht@btconnect.com

Photographs, or even short video clips, are particularly welcome.

We look forward to hearing from you

Fiona MacGillivray, Chairperson
