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...

Download or read book The Historical Atlas of Breeding Birds in Britain and Ireland 1875-1900 written by Simon Holloway and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2010-01-31 with total page 867 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The landscape of Britain has been irreversibly changed over the last century. Modern agriculture, urban expansion, industry and transport have all left their mark, altering the face of the countryside forever. Shifting with the changing scene, the fortunes of Britain and Ireland's bird populations have fluctuated dramatically over the years. As current farming practices have evolved, the natural habitats and breeding patterns of many species have been disrupted. Urban and industrial growth has brought with it the pressures of new land use, pesticides, pollution and human interference. The activities of sportsmen, collectors and farmers have also taken their toll over the years. The new Poyser title The Historical Atlas of Breeding Birds in Britain and Ireland 1875-1900 is a fascinating book resulting form years of meticulous research by the author, Simon Holloway, who provides an absorbing account of the distribution changes of Britain and Ireland's birds over the last quarter of a century. Large colour distribution maps and their accompanying text paint a species-by-species picture of a period which completely transformed the landscape of this country. It is, says Natural World magazine, "a classic case of 'why did no one write this book before?'...The experienced birder, using a knowledge of species requirements, can only marvel at what the long-vanished landscapes were then like." Birdwatch praises Simon Holloway's achievement, saying: "This book brings together so much information from disparate sources, and its status maps present such a clear picture of our late Victorian avifauna, that it should take its place beside the BTO atlases on the bookshelf." While Birdwatching adds: "If you are interested in the historical side of birds and their populations this book will be an endless source of fascination." As with all Poyser publications, the attention to detail, the lovingly produced illustrations and the sheer breadth of knowledge demonstrated by the autho
